public class ForceUpdateAsync extends AsyncTask<String, String, JSONObject>{
private String latestVersion;
private String currentVersion;
private Context context;
public ForceUpdateAsync(String currentVersion, Context context){
this.currentVersion = currentVersion;
this.context = context;
}
#Override
protected JSONObject doInBackground(String... params) {
try
{
latestVersion = Jsoup.connect("https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id="+context.getPackageName()+"&hl=en")
.timeout(30000)
.userAgent("Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; WindowsNT 5.1; en-US; rv1.8.1.6) Gecko/20070725 Firefox/2.0.0.6")
.referrer("http://www.google.com")
.get()
.select("div[itemprop=softwareVersion]")
.first()
.ownText();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return new JSONObject();
}
#Override
protected void onPostExecute(JSONObject jsonObject) {
if(latestVersion!=null){
if(!currentVersion.equalsIgnoreCase(latestVersion)){
// Toast.makeText(context,"update is available.",Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
if(!(context instanceof SplashActivity)) {
if(!((Activity)context).isFinishing()){
showForceUpdateDialog();
}
}
}
}
super.onPostExecute(jsonObject);
}
public void showForceUpdateDialog(){
AlertDialog.Builder alertDialogBuilder = new AlertDialog.Builder(new ContextThemeWrapper(context,
R.style.DialogDark));
alertDialogBuilder.setTitle(context.getString(R.string.youAreNotUpdatedTitle));
alertDialogBuilder.setMessage(context.getString(R.string.youAreNotUpdatedMessage) + " " + latestVersion + context.getString(R.string.youAreNotUpdatedMessage1));
alertDialogBuilder.setCancelable(false);
alertDialogBuilder.setPositiveButton(R.string.update, new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int id) {
context.startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("market://details?id=" + context.getPackageName())));
dialog.cancel();
}
});
alertDialogBuilder.show();
}
}
after that in your splash activity just use this code
public void forceUpdate()
{
PackageManager packageManager = this.getPackageManager();
PackageInfo packageInfo = null;
try {
packageInfo = packageManager.getPackageInfo(getPackageName(),0);
} catch (PackageManager.NameNotFoundException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
String currentVersion = packageInfo.versionName;
new ForceUpdateAsync(currentVersion,BaseActivity.this).execute();
}
