Android Scan Local Subnet
I'm currently writing a small test Android app, and have run across a small (large) problem with the emulator.
The code that goes out and scans the local subnet for computers running my server piece of the software does not return anything! This code functions perfectly on the desktop portion, so I know something is wrong inside of my emulator.
I had to hardcode the IP scan first because I cannot determine the IP address within the emulator, so I know I'm at least scanning the right range.
Summary: How can I connect to servers via sockets from inside my emulator on the local subnet?
Thanks all!
Here's the requested code:
public static ArrayList<String> serviceScanner() {
ArrayList<String> servers = new ArrayList<String>();
// Get the IP of the local machine
String iIPv4 = "";
String test = "";
//getLocalIpAddress();
//System.out.println(test);
try {
// Get localhost
InetAddress addr = InetAddress.getLocalHost();
// Get IP Address
byte[] ipAddr = addr.getAddress();
iIPv4 = addr.toString();
iIPv4 = iIPv4.substring(iIPv4.indexOf("/") + 1);
iIPv4 = "10.0.2.1";
} catch (UnknownHostException e) {
// Exception output
}
// IP stuff.
String IPv4Start = "", IPv4End = "";
iIPv4 = iIPv4.substring(0, iIPv4.lastIndexOf("."));
iIPv4 += ".";
IPv4Start = iIPv4 + "1";
IPv4End = iIPv4 + "254";
PrintWriter out = null;
BufferedReader in = null;
// Loop to scan each address on the local subnet
for (int i = 1; i < 255; i++) {
try {
System.o开发者_开发百科ut.println(iIPv4+i);
Socket mySocket = new Socket();
SocketAddress address = new InetSocketAddress(iIPv4 + i, port);
mySocket.connect(address, 5);
out = new PrintWriter(mySocket.getOutputStream(), true);
in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(
mySocket.getInputStream()));
out.println("Scanning!");
String fromServer;
while ((fromServer = in.readLine()) != null) {
System.out.println("Server: " + fromServer);
if (fromServer.equals("Server here!")) {
servers.add(iIPv4 + i);
mySocket.close();
break;
}
}
mySocket.close();
out.close();
in.close();
} catch (UnknownHostException e) {
} catch (IOException e) {
}
}
return servers;
}
}
The emulator is not on the same subnet as your computer. It's on it's own virtual subnet connected to the computer via its own NAT router. There is an explanation here: http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/devices/emulator.html#emulatornetworking
However, the emulator, via its router, should be able to connect to any socket anywhere on the Internet. What is the address you are trying to connect to? The emulator won't route 10.0.0.0 private addresses because it uses them for itself. Not sure about 168.192.0.0. Can you post the code that is failing?
