Discovering local server connection via LAN using Android - android

I am trying to discover local server(apache tomcat) running on http://localhost:8080 through my android device.To achieve that i thought of using jmdns library from heere
but i am really confused about how to proceed with as i don't understand the networking much.
here is the codei have written with little googling but any help would a be a great help.
public class DnssdDiscovery extends Activity {
protected static final String TAG = DnssdDiscovery.class.getSimpleName();
android.net.wifi.WifiManager.MulticastLock lock;
android.os.Handler handler = new android.os.Handler();
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
handler.postDelayed(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
setUp();
}
}, 1000);
} /** Called when the activity is first created. */
// private String type = "_workstation._tcp.local.";_http._tcp.local.
private String type = "_http._tcp.local.";
private JmDNS jmdns = null;
private ServiceListener listener = null;
private ServiceInfo serviceInfo;
private void setUp() {
android.net.wifi.WifiManager wifi = (android.net.wifi.WifiManager) getSystemService(android.content.Context.WIFI_SERVICE);
lock = wifi.createMulticastLock("mylockthereturn");
lock.setReferenceCounted(true);
lock.acquire();
try {
InetAddress Address = InetAddress.getLocalHost();
Log.e("Local :", Address.getHostName());
jmdns = JmDNS.create(Address);
jmdns.addServiceListener(type, listener = new ServiceListener() {
#Override
public void serviceResolved(ServiceEvent ev) {
notifyUser("Service resolved: " + ev.getInfo().getQualifiedName() + " port:" + ev.getInfo().getPort());
}
#Override
public void serviceRemoved(ServiceEvent ev) {
notifyUser("Service removed: " + ev.getName());
}
#Override
public void serviceAdded(ServiceEvent event) {
// Required to force serviceResolved to be called again (after the first search)
jmdns.requestServiceInfo(event.getType(), event.getName(), 1);
}
});
serviceInfo = ServiceInfo.create("_http._tcp.local.", "AndroidTest", 8080, "plain test service from android");
jmdns.registerService(serviceInfo);
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
return;
}
}
private void notifyUser(final String msg) {
handler.postDelayed(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
TextView t = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.text);
t.setText(msg+"\n=== "+t.getText());
}
}, 1);
}
#Override

//new Thread(){public void run() {setUp();}}.start();
}

You are getting the exception because in class ObdGatewayService your class member mChatservice is not the same as mChatservice in class LiveFragment
They are just different member variables
mChatservice gets assigned like this in your Fragment
mChatService = new BluetoothChatService(getActivity(), mHandler);
You need to pass this reference to ObdGatewayService 's startService() like this where ever you are instantiating/invoking it:-
ObdGatewayService ogs;
....
ogs.startservice(mChatservice); // This is fragment's member reference
And in ObdGatewayService you have to assign it accordingly:-
public void startService(BluetoothChatService _mChatservice) throws IOException {
Log.d(TAG, "Starting service..");
bluetoothAdapter = BluetoothAdapter.getDefaultAdapter();
mChatservice = _mChatservice //Assignment YOU ARE MISSING THIS
.......
.......

Could this have something to do with detaching when the app goes on pause or stop and not re-attaching when it comes back to life? Are there other things I should be considering?
Ultimately the app needs to keep communication open to about 5 or 6 devices over p2p. if there is a better strategy I'm open to suggestions. Thanks.
Update - So I've confirmed that both the onDestroy and onDetach methods of the fragment are firing when the main activity goes onStop. Since I have a method to close the sockets on death of the fragment they are getting closed. The big question now is how to keep the fragment alive?
You should maybe create a helper class that will open/close sockets on behalf of other classes, such as that fragment, that helper class won't be subjected to any life cycle events, and can be kept running as long as the Application process is alive

Sensor Thread and Handler Thread Problems

I'm working on an app for a Sony Smarthwatch 3.
It records audio and sensor values after a command from another device that is connected by Bluetooth.
I try to be more clear.
The problems
The Handler doesn't update the associated TextView (also the Button isn't set properly). The handler attached to "log" TextView just update the view in the end of execution with the last text sent.
The sensor doesn't update the field as required. The sensors and related listeners are poperly instantiated but i can't save the values associated to events they are ispecting. The string where i should save the values will never been changed, it's like listeners never find related events. I've already tested sensors on this device and they work normally.
The chronometer doesn't work. Thenever start his count. it's not realy important but i wonna understand why. I'm thinking about some issue related to threads but i don't know how manage it.

serviceRemoved is not called while discovering the devices

I am working on a project that needs to discover all the devices in the same wi-fi network. For implementing this I have used Jmdns library.
It is giving me the list of devices that are registered into the current network, but when the device gets unregistered it should call serviceRemoved method of ServiceListener. However, it is not calling the serviceRemoved when the device is unregistered.
Here is my code.:
public class LanService {
private static LanService instance = new LanService();
private final String TYPE = "_sample._tcp.local.";
private JmDNS jmdns = null;
private ServiceInfo serviceInfo;
private WifiManager.MulticastLock lock;
private ServiceListener listener;
public static LanService getInstance() {
return instance;
}
public void startDiscovery() {
WifiManager wifi = (WifiManager) AppBase.getAppContext().getSystemService(Context.WIFI_SERVICE);
if (wifi.isWifiEnabled()) {
new Handler().postDelayed(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
Thread startDiscoveryThread = new Thread(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
if (serviceInfo != null) {
stopScan();
}
setUp();
}
});
startDiscoveryThread.start();
}
}, 2000);
}
}
#Override
public void stopDiscovery() {
Thread stopDiscoveryThread = new Thread(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
stopScan();
}
});
stopDiscoveryThread.start();
}
private void setUp() {
try {
WifiManager wifi = (WifiManager) AppBase.getAppContext().getSystemService(Context.WIFI_SERVICE);
if (!wifi.isWifiEnabled()) {
wifi.setWifiEnabled(true);
}
// get the device ip address
final InetAddress deviceIpAddress = getLocalIpAddress();
if (deviceIpAddress != null) {
lock = wifi.createMulticastLock(getClass().getName());
lock.setReferenceCounted(true);
lock.acquire();
jmdns = JmDNS.create(deviceIpAddress);
serviceInfo = ServiceInfo.create(TYPE, Build.MODEL, 3129, "plain test service from android");
jmdns.registerService(serviceInfo);
jmdns.addServiceListener(TYPE, listener = new ServiceListener() {
#Override
public void serviceResolved(ServiceEvent ev) {
Log.d(TAG, "Service Resolved : " + ev.getInfo().getQualifiedName() + " ipAddr : " + ev.getInfo().getInetAddresses()[0]);
}
#Override
public void serviceRemoved(ServiceEvent ev) {
Log.d(TAG, "Service Removed : " + ev.getInfo().getQualifiedName() + " ipAddr : " + ev.getInfo().getInetAddresses()[0]);
}
#Override
public void serviceAdded(ServiceEvent ev) {
try {
// Required to force serviceResolved to be called again (after the first search)
Log.d(TAG, "Service Added : " + ev.getInfo().getQualifiedName());
jmdns.requestServiceInfo(ev.getType(), ev.getName(), 1000);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
});
}
} catch (IOException ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
Log.e(TAG, ex.getMessage(), ex);
}
Log.i(TAG, "Started ZeroConf probe....");
}
private void stopScan() {
try {
if (jmdns != null) {
Log.i(TAG, "Stopping ZeroConf probe....");
jmdns.removeServiceListener(TYPE, listener);
jmdns.unregisterService(serviceInfo);
jmdns.unregisterAllServices();
jmdns.close();
jmdns = null;
}
if (lock != null) {
Log.i(TAG, "Releasing Mutlicast Lock...");
if (lock.isHeld())
lock.release();
lock = null;
}
} catch (Exception ex) {
Log.e(TAG, ex.getMessage(), ex);
}
}
}
Why is serviceRemoved not getting invoked when the device is unregistered from the network? Any suggestions are appreciated .
Why do you open a thread inside the runnable of the handler? The Handler runs the runnable on a separate thread. What you do is:
-The handler runs the runnable on a thread and you open another thread and do your stuff. Maybe that is your problem.
Instead of this:
new Handler().postDelayed(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
Thread startDiscoveryThread = new Thread(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
if (serviceInfo != null) {
stopScan();
}
setUp();
}
});
startDiscoveryThread.start();
}
}, 2000);
Try this:
new Handler().postDelayed(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
if (serviceInfo != null) {
stopScan();
}
setUp();
}
}, 2000);

Is it possible to pass Chromcast connection info between Activities?

I am developing an app that connects to a Chromecast, everything works fine when I do it from one activity, the problem is, that I want that activity to be fullscreen with no action bar, and no soft buttons. I am achiving that, hiding them when the users connects to the Chromecast, but it would be better if the users connect from the first activity (with action bar) and then goes to the second activity and the magic occurs there. But I can't pass the session between the activities. I have follow this tutorial to make the communication with the chromecast but tried to change a little to make the 2 acitivites communication.
Of course I have tested it and it returns a NullPointerException.

If you have an application with multiple activities, you are better off if you do not tie the cast connectivity and related states to any of those activities, instead you can have a singleton, or use your Application instance or use a background service or ... to maintain the connection and access the required pieces that are maintained in that global place. If it fits your requirement, you might want to use the CastCompanionLibrary that already does most of the routine stuff for you; if not, you can take a look at it and the see how the CastVideos sample app uses that and try to do something similar for your application.
