made a basic server in eclipse:
Server server;
int tcp = 8885, udp = 8885;
public ServerMain() {
server = new Server();
server.addListener(new Listener() {
public void connected(Connection c) {
System.out.println("Connection made");
}
public void received(Connection c, Object p) {
}
public void disconnected(Connection c) {
System.out.println("Disconnection made");
}
});
server.start();
try {
server.bind(tcp, udp);
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
new ServerMain();
}
Then I created my client in android studio. I installed the library correctly. (According to google) I put the Kryonet jar into the libs folder and then rebuilt the project. I could then use Kryonet classes. Here is my code for my client:
Client client;
String ip = "MY.IP.ADDRESS";
int tcp = 8885, udp = 8885;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
Log.i(TAG, "Start");
client = new Client();
client.addListener(new Listener() {
public void received(Connection c, Object p) {
}
});
client.start();
try {
client.connect(5000, ip, tcp, udp);
Log.i(TAG, "conected");
} catch(IOException e) {
Log.i(TAG, "Error: " + e.getMessage());
}
}
It’s the exact same code I would use in a normal Java client except now it’s running directly from my android device. I get this error:
Error: Unable to connect to: /MY.IP.ADDRESS:8885
It cannot connect to my IP even though I port forwarded it and all. Why won’t it connect? I have read online to add in this to my manifest file:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
So, I did:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
android:label="@string/app_name"
android:theme="@style/AppTheme" >
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<activity
android:name=".MainActivity"
android:label="@string/app_name" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
</application>
Still to absolutely no avail. What am I doing wrong? (P.S. I have tried with both my network IP, and my public IP. I have no idea what I’m doing wrong, everything works fine with a normal Java program, but with an android app it bugs out.)
