BrowserField and lost connection

I have an app that uses a browserfield to connect to a web-page. All is working ok and the simulator shows the right page.

If I set the simulator Network Properties to "Out of Coverage" and click on a link in my web-page then I get an exception - in the BrowserFieldConnectionManagerImpl

How can catch this exception so I can take appropriate action?

The app is using BlackBerry SDK

The code is here:

public final class example_Screen extends MainScreen {

// Create the ErrorHandler class
public class MyBrowserFieldErrorHandler extends BrowserFieldErrorHandler {
    protected MyBrowserFieldErrorHandler(BrowserField browserField){
        super(browserField);
    }

    public void displayContentError(String url, String errorMessage) {
        System.out.println("JERRY: displayContentError" + url);
        System.out.println("JERRY: displayContentError" + errorMessage);
    }

    public void displayContentError(String url, InputConnection connection, Throwable t) {
        displayContentError(url, t.getMessage());
    }

    public void navigationRequestError(BrowserFieldRequest request, Throwable t) {
        displayContentError(request.getURL(), t.getMessage());
    }

    public void requestContentError(BrowserFieldRequest request, Throwable t) {
        displayContentError(request.getURL(), t.getMessage());
    }

    public InputConnection resourceRequestError(BrowserFieldRequest request, Throwable t) {
        displayContentError(request.getURL(), t.getMessage());
        InputConnection connection = null;
        return connection;
    }   

}


/**
 * Creates a new example_Screen object
 */
public example_Screen() {

    GIFEncodedImage ourAnimation = (GIFEncodedImage) GIFEncodedImage.getEncodedImageResource("2.gif");       

    AnimatedGIFField _ourAnimation = new AnimatedGIFField(ourAnimation, Field.FIELD_HCENTER + Field.FIELD_VCENTER);
    this.add(_ourAnimation);
    LabelField _ourLabelField = new LabelField("Updating ...", Field.FIELD_HCENTER + Field.FIELD_VCENTER);
    this.add(_ourLabelField);                   

    int anim_ht = _ourAnimation.getPreferredHeight();
    int label_ht = _ourLabelField.getPreferredHeight();

    EncodedImage ei = EncodedImage.getEncodedImageResource("img/menu.png");       

    int currentWidthFixed32 = Fixed32.toFP(ei.getWidth());
    int currentHeightFixed32 = Fixed32.toFP(ei.getHeight());

    int displayWidthFixed32 = Fixed32.toFP(Display.getWidth());

BrowserField contains a method, addListener() which takes a reference to BrowserFieldListener implementation.

Extend BrowserFieldListener and process errors in methods documentError() and documentAborted() of this implementation.

Then add a reference of your class instance that extends BrowserFieldListener to your browser field via browserField.addListener(browserFieldListener);.

EDIT:

If this does not work, then use BrowserFieldErrorHandler class from RIM API. Build your own error handler and pass its instance to the browserfield configuration.

Below, there's sample code:

// Create the ErrorHandler class
public class MyBrowserFieldErrorHandler extends BrowserFieldErrorHandler {
  public void displayContentError(String url, String errorMessage) {
    String error = "Error: (url=" + url + "): " + t.getMessage();
    Dialog.ask(Dialog.D_OK, error);
    logMessage(“BrowserFieldError: “ + error );
  }

 public void displayContentError(String url, InputConnection connection, Throwable t) { 
    displayContentError(url, t.getMessage());
 }

 public void requestContentError(BrowserFieldRequest request, Throwable t){
  displayContentError(request.getURL(), t.getMessage());
 }
}

// Attach the Error Handler to the BrowserField
BrowserFieldErrorHandler eHandler = new MyBrowserFieldErrorHandler();
browserField.getConfig().setProperty(BrowserFieldConfig.ERROR_HANDLER,eHandler);

I get this sample code from DevCon2010 presentation of BrowserField capabilities. You can get it here: http://dev.tuyennguyen.ca/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/DEV49.pdf
