setWebViewClient to webView

[fncapps]

Hi, I've been some days looking for methods in order to be able to download from the webview.

I have found a workaround based on WebClient but I first need to be able to do webView.setWebViewClient();

Could you add this functionality soon please? Thanks a lot!

EDIT: in fact I just need the shouldOverrideUrlLoading() not the whole WebViewClient I'm trying to develop this feature, in a couple of hours I'll send a pull request

Hi @fncapps, can you tell me how you want to overrideUrlLoading? What kind of code you want to run on shouldOverrideUrlLoading() event?

[fncapps]

The idea was to look at the end of the URL for any kind of mimetype and start a download manager request if it was supposed to be downloaded.

The thing is that I recently found out this does not work with web pages that use php for example to trigger the download, so it is unnecessary.

The problem is that the method onStartDownload doesn't work neither.

Same here. No way to make custom WebViewClient... :/
