Android: Create a URL using Uri.Builder().build() with port numbers

Question

Uri.Builder.build() works quite well with normal URLs, but it fails with port number support.

The easiest way that I discovered to make it support port numbers was to make it parse a given URL first then work with it.

        private void postData(String value_id,String  value_seaction,
        String value_item,
        String value_descration) {

        HttpParams httpParameters = new BasicHttpParams();
        HttpProtocolParams.setContentCharset(httpParameters, HTTP.UTF_8);
        HttpProtocolParams.setHttpElementCharset(httpParameters, HTTP.UTF_8);

           HttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient(httpParameters);
          // Log.d("url=>",value_item);
          // Log.d("url=>","http://rafsanjan.uni-azad.ebrahiminezhad.ir/json/darkhasr.php?shdaneshjo="+value_id+"&moavenat="+value_seaction+"&darkhast="+value_item+"&startdate=test&tozih="+ value_descration);
        //   http://app.sirmagid.ac.ir:1180/json2
           Uri.Builder builder = new Uri.Builder();
           builder.scheme("http")
               .authority("app.iaurafsanjan.ac.ir:1180")
               .appendPath("json2")
               .appendPath("darkhasr.php")
               .appendQueryParameter("shdaneshjo", value_id)
               .appendQueryParameter("moavenat", value_seaction)
                .appendQueryParameter("darkhast", value_item)
                 .appendQueryParameter("startdatet", "0")
                 .appendQueryParameter("tozih", value_descration);
              // .fragment("section-name");
           String myUrl = builder.build().toString();
           Log.d("url=>",myUrl);

          HttpPost httppost = new HttpPost(myUrl);
          // HttpPost httppost = new HttpPost
           ("http://sirmagid.uni-azad.ebrahiminezhad.ir   /json/darkhasr.php?shdaneshjo="+value_id+"&moavenat="+value_seaction+"&darkhast="+zir_item+"&startdate=test&tozih="+ value_descration);  //???
           try {
               ArrayList<NameValuePair> nameValuePairs = new ArrayList<NameValuePair>(8);
               //nameValuePairs.add(new BasicNameValuePair("name", name));
               httppost.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(nameValuePairs,"UTF-8"));
               HttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(httppost);
               HttpEntity resEntity = response.getEntity();  
               Log.d("RESPONSE",EntityUtils.toString(resEntity));

           }
           catch(Exception e)
           {
               Log.e("log_tag", "Error:  "+e.toString());
           }
       }

return:

http://app.sirmagid.ac.ir%3a1180/json2/darkhasr?shdaneshjo=920275234&moavenat=%D8%A7%D9%85%D9%88%D8%B2%D8%B4%DB%8C&darkhast=j&startdatet=0&tozih=66666

There is no special method to set a port number. To achieve what you want, you should use .encodedAuthority("app.iaurafsanjan.ac.ir:1180") instead of .authority("app.iaurafsanjan.ac.ir:1180").
