Network activity on UI thread on Android about wasync HOT 3 OPEN

Hi, can you elaborate? wAsync is fully asynchronous, hence I needed to add those android property. How can it be avoided?

On newer versions of Android there is a policy which prohibits all network activity on the UI thread. In case you call any method related to networking like opening sockets or using URLConnection.open an exception is thrown.
It seems that wAsync does some networking on Socket.open before everything else is handled in the background. On other platforms this might not be a problem, but Android is very strict with these things.
Threading in general is a bit tricky, since the results must be delivered back to the UI on the UI thread.
In the long run it could be nice for developers to have some kind of "wrapper" for wAsync on Android which handles threading and delivery of results in the correct threads.
