Why twitter OAUTH not redirecting me back to application in CustomWebView in Android?

Question

I am trying to open twitter integration inside a custom webview beacuse,

I am using this example

ctx.startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(authUrl)));

If I user above code, it give a problem on pressback button. After redirection and posting status. When I press back button it goes to browser not to my application. I decide to user custom webview to avoide this by handling back event.

I am using following example. But now after authuntication browser not redirecting me back to my application but give an error, that page not found.? Can anyone help?

Answer 1

I finally modify my CustomeWebView class method to check if the redirecting URL is start with "----" then parse tokens from URL and finish this activity and start new activity.
