Tailor made app for Google Patents Search with WebView

Google provide a nice service, Google Patents (http://www.google.com/patents). With Google Patents, you can now search the full text of the U.S. patent corpus and find patents that interest you.

It's a simple tailor made app to provide a short-cut to Google Patents.

Google Patents Search


package com.example.googlepatents;

import android.os.Bundle;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.view.Window;
import android.webkit.WebChromeClient;
import android.webkit.WebSettings;
import android.webkit.WebView;
import android.webkit.WebViewClient;

public class MainActivity extends Activity {

String GooglePatentsPath = "http://www.google.com/patents";

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
WebView webView = new WebView(this);

getWindow().requestFeature(Window.FEATURE_PROGRESS);
setContentView(webView);

WebSettings webSettings = webView.getSettings();
webSettings.setJavaScriptEnabled(true); //enable JavaScript execution
webSettings.setBuiltInZoomControls(true); //enable built-in zoom
webSettings.setUseWideViewPort(true); //use the wide viewport
webSettings.setLoadWithOverviewMode(true); //loads with overview mode

webView.setWebViewClient(new MyWebViewClient());

webView.loadUrl(GooglePatentsPath);

final Activity activity = this;
webView.setWebChromeClient(new WebChromeClient() {

public void onProgressChanged(WebView view, int progress) {
activity.setProgress(progress * 100);
}});
}

public class MyWebViewClient extends WebViewClient {

@Override
public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
view.loadUrl(url);
return true;
}
}

}
