Socket Programming - TCP Connection Through NetBios (NBNS) Name?

Dec 22, 2011

I'd like to know whether there is a way to connect to a TCP server (socket server) in an computer using his name (e.g.: my computer has a host name: MyComputer; then I must connect with it using his name).

It can be done using NBNS protocol (NetBios Name Service), but always I try to connect using his name, the Tablet uses DNS protocol instead of NBNS, as I might expct.

Android :: Socket Programming - Java - Many Clients One Socket

Nov 12, 2009

Essentially Im trying to get many many java clients connect to a socket on my ColdFusion server (Using the Socket Gateway). However before i even start to code this, Im a little confused about sockets and their performance. First of all, are sockets meant for many(1000+) clients connecting to one socket (say port 2202) on one server? How is the performance if all there waiting for is basically a ping, or something such that when these clients receive this "ping" they can go get some new data.

Android :: How To Approach Socket Programming Between C# -> Java

May 8, 2010

I've recently knocked up a server/client app for Windows & Android that allows one to send a file from Windows to an android phone over a socket connection. It works great for a single file but trying to send multiple files over in a single stream is causing me problems. I've also realised that aside from the binary data, I will need to send messages over the socket to indicate error states and other application messages. I have little experience with network programming and and wondering what is the best way forward.Basically the C# server side of the app just goes into a listening state and uses Socket.SendFile to transmit the file. On Android I use the standard Java Socket.getInputStream() to receive the file. That works great for a single file transfer, but how should I handle multiple files and error/messaging information? Do I need to use a different socket for each file? Should I be using a higher level framework to handle this or can I send everything over the single socket? Any other suggestions for frameworks or learning materials?

Android :: Server Socket Programming In 1.5 / Most Power Efficient Way?

Dec 2, 2009

I am doing a project where I have too develop an application that listens for incoming events by a service. The device that has to listen too events is an Android phone with Android SDK 1.5 on it. Currently the services that call events only implement communication trough UDP or TCP sockets. I can solve my problem by setting up a ServerSocket, but i doubt that's the most power efficient way. This application will be running most of the time, with Wi-Fi on, and I'd like too reach an long battery duration. I've been looking for options on the internet for my question for a while but i couldn't get a real answer.What is the most efficient way too listen to incoming events? Should I make an ServerSocket? or what are my options?Are there any other implementations that are more power efficient?

Android :: Socket Freezes Using GSM Connection

I'm working on application that uses a socket connection.I've implemented 2 different Threads for the read() and the write() methods so they are not being blocked by the read.Everything is working well on the WiFi connection but when I switch to GSM connection the connection becomes unstable without any exception being thrown. It means that there are freezes.the write and read seems to work but no data is actually being piped.

Android :: How To Manage Connection To A Socket?

Jun 21, 2010

I would like to know what is the recommendation for socket connection management in Android?In our App we would like to be connected to a TCP/IP server when our app is in the foreground or paused. So, create a connection to a TCP/ IP server when the App starts basically, On Create of the launcher activity. However, we do not want to create a new connection and close connection every time an activity is created, paused, destroyed or orientation changed. So, we save the connection object in the App class and the activities will reuse the same connection.Question is when do I close it? I would like to close the socket when the App is "paused", "stopped" or "destroyed". The problem is these messages are not sent in the App context. How can I figure out if the App is in foreground or not? Even the "Terminated" event for an App is not guaranteed to be delivered. So, in that case how do I know when to disconnect?

Android :: Server Socket 3G Connection

Mar 3, 2010

I have been trying to setup a Droid to Droid 3G connection. I can confirm that all works great in wifi mode. The Droid can make connection requests (Http, Telnet, raw sockets) in 3G, but I cannot get the Droid to accept a socket connection in 3G mode. I was told by Verizon that a special license may be needed to accept socket connection requests and they would send me some information. So far none has been received. If anyone knows how to program the Droid to accept socket connection requests over 3G, please respond. Also if anyone knows why this not allowed please respond.

Android :: Detecting Socket Connection Failure

Apr 1, 2010

I am working on an app that uses a Socket to connect to a controller over TCP. The protocol library was written in Java and I am implementing it in android via a Service. where the Connection class is a Thread that handles the communications with the controller. It's where the Socket lives.I'm using the Preferences mechanism to store the IP and Port. If I feed the Socket the correct IP and Port, the Connection Service works beautifully. However, I am trying to simulate a user entering the wrong information and having the connection fail. The ultimate goal is to present a dialog and offer the ability to "reconnect" or "update settings". However, when I enter a wrong Port number, the application simply hangs.I was under the impression that Threads executed concurrently so I've tried moving the call to start the Connection Service to a Thread, but it still hangs the application.

Android :: Permanent Socket Connection Drains Battery

Jul 15, 2010

I am developing an app which has one service running in the background even if the application is closed. This service basically listens to the server via socket connection. It is an app's requirement to keep one consistent connection open. but this drains battery liek anything. I know socket is costly affair in the sense of battery life. Do anybody know any other way to keep communication channel open? or any optimization in using socket?

Android :: Create Persistent Socket Connection On Droid?

Apr 29, 2010

First off, let me say that feel free to recommend me if long lived TCP persistent connections are the way to go or persistent HTTP connections are better.

I've also pre-read that instead of having a persistent connection, I can have a polling mechanism.

I'm just asking in the curious interest of how can I create a persistent connection from Android to a server?

Android :: SSL Socket Blocks On Read While Changing Connection / Is It A Bug?

Feb 19, 2010

I assume that when I do a read on the inputstream, it blocks until it gets more data to read.
I also assume that when the connection is closed, the read throws an IOException.

The problem is that sometimes when I change the connection from carrier to WiFi or from WiFi to carrier, the read just gets stuck and never throws the IOException.

The SDK is 1.5 and the phone a HTC Hero.

This behavior is quite ugly for me because I need to stay always connected.
Does someone else have ever seen this problem ? Is it a bug or am I the bug?

Socket Networking - Set Up Basic Network Connection Using Droids?

Feb 7, 2012

I'm trying to set up a basic network connection using droids but I'm having problems.my server program:

Code:
ServerSocket ss = new ServerSocket(8888);
while(!end){
//Server is waiting for client here, if needed[code]....

the server runs until it reaches ss.accept() like it should but the client still can't connect. The client usually times out and nothing happens

I'm running both these programs using eclipse on my computer. I set the premissions in the manifest for both programs to let them use the internet and I have the port forwarding .

Android :: Server Socket Ports Connection Timeout Error

Jul 9, 2010

I am playing around a bit with peer-to-peer communication with android devices.I have written a basic program that creates a listening ServerSocket on each phone using the application. Using the application you can also connect to other devices that is listening, by connecting to the remote ServerSocket. Nothing strange about that.My problem is that it seems that the listening port is not open for connection on different devices. I can connect to my HTC Desire, works like a charm. But connecting to a HTC Hero I get timeout, same if I try to connect to the emulator. But connection FROM the emulator to the Desire and FROM the Hero to the Desire works like a charm. Whats up with this? No security apps is installed and both devices(and the emulator) is running 2.1.

Communicate To WiFi Enabled Arduino Board With Static IP - Socket Connection

Feb 3, 2012

So Im writing an application to communicate to a Wi-Fi enabled Arduino board with a static IP...

This is what Im trying to do...
1.) Enter Ip and Host
2.) Connect
3.) Simply send either a "0" or "1" to the arduino board

There are two activities at the moment, one to enter the IP and port of the Board (which is set from the board itself) and one to send data to the board. When i comment out the connection methods in the Communicator class the app swithches activities without any issues, but when i un-comment them and attempt to connect, the app immediately closes after i attempt to connect.

Code:

package car.test.namespace;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;

[Code]...

Code:

package car.test.namespace;
import java.io.*;
import java.net.*;
public class Communication {

[Code]...

Code:

package car.test.namespace;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;

[Code]..

Also, im not even seeing the "Connection Failed" message, the app is just shutting down,.

Android :: Java Socket Not Throwing Exceptions On Dead Socket?

Jun 29, 2010

We have a simple client server architecture between our mobile device and our server both written in Java. An extremely simple ServerSocket and Socket implementation. However one problem is that when the client terminates abruptly (without closing the socket properly) the server does not know that it is disconnected. Furthermore, the server can continue to write to this socket without getting any exceptions. Why? According to documentation Java sockets should throw exceptions if you try to write to a socket that is not reachable on the other end!

Android :: Connecting Android Bluetooth Client Socket To Ubuntu Server Socket

Jul 15, 2010

I am writing an Android app that should exchange data to a server over Bluetooth, with the server side on a PC running Ubuntu, using the bluez library, in C (or C++).

My Android app fails (IOException) when I try to connect to my server socket on the PC.

Here is essentially what I in the java code (in Android, full eclipse project here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2968234/ThinBTClient.zip)

CODE:...........

This throws IOException after a timeout of 10seconds or so.

On the server side (in Ubuntu 8.10), I basically set up a Bluetooth server socket, along the lines described in the example bluez/sdp-register.c

Down below is my C++ program. To compile it do

g++ -I/usr/include/glib-2.0/ -I/usr/lib/glib-2.0/include -o bt_server bt_server.cpp -lbluetooth

I can do the reverse succesfully, i.e. create a server socket in Android and connect from Linux, however this is not what I want to do!

I think either the problem has to do with my config of Ubuntu.

Samsung I7500 :: Wifi Connection Lost After Screen Lock And Can't Regain Connection After Unlock

Sep 7, 2009

If my screen locks while I have a wifi connection, then the connection is lost when I unlock the phone.First, is this perhaps deliberate, to save power? Also, either way, when I unlock the screen and go into wifi settings, I see that the phone is trying to make a wifi connection, but it never succeeds, even though it's my home network and I'm in the same room as the router. It just states 'Obtaining address.

Android :: Cancel/abort Connection From ThreadSafeClientConnManager Connection Pool

Oct 14, 2009

I'm using ThreadSafeClientConnManager to manage a pool of client connections, because my application has several threads, which are simultaneously connecting to a webserver.

Abstract sample code:

CODE:..............

Now lets say on of this threads is downloading a large file, but then the user of my application is switching to another activity/screen. Therefor the file is needless and I'd like to abort this download connection.

In ThreadSafeClientConnManager I found this method: public ClientConnectionRequest requestConnection (HttpRoute route, Object state) Returns a new ClientConnectionRequest, from which a ManagedClientConnection can be obtained or the request can be aborted.

So far I've been using:

CODE:.........

Now from what I understand, I've to use:

httpclient.getConnectionManager().requestConnection(HttpRoute route, Object state);

And that's the point where I'm stuck. I assume that for the route I can just use new HttpRoute(new HttpHost("10.0.0.1")) or whatever my server is, but what to put in for Object state?

And second, as soon as I've the ClientConnectionManager I can call getConnection(long timeout, TimeUnit tunit). But then from there, how I do I execute my HttpGet httpRequest = new HttpGet(URL_TO_FILE); as I did before with HttpResponse response = (HttpResponse) httpclient.execute(httpRequest);?

I've been gone through the documentation and tried out quite a few different things, but I wasn't able to obtain a working solution. Therefor any suggestions and/or code examples are more than welcome.
