Hi all,
I am facing a probleme with threads and sockets I cant figure it out, if someone can help me please i would really appreciate.
There are the facts :
I have a service class NetworkService, inside this class I have a Socket attribute.
I would like it be at the state of connected for the whole lifecycle of the service.
To connect the socket I do it in a thread, so if the server has to timeout, it would not block my UI thread.
Problem is, into the thread where I connect my socket everything is fine, it is connected and I can talk to my server, once this thread is over and I try to reuse the socket, in another thread, I have the error message Socket is not connected.
Questions are :
- Is the socket automatically disconnected at the end of the thread?
- Is their anyway we can pass back a value from a called thread to the caller ?
Thanks a lot,
Here is my code
public class NetworkService extends Service {
private Socket mSocket = new Socket();
private void _connectSocket(String addr, int port) {
Runnable connect = new connectSocket(this.mSocket, addr, port);
new Thread(connect).start();
}
private void _authentification() {
Runnable auth = new authentification();
new Thread(auth).start();
}
private INetwork.Stub mBinder = new INetwork.Stub() {
@Override
public int doConnect(String addr, int port) throws RemoteException {
_connectSocket(addr, port);
_authentification();
return 0;
}
};
class connectSocket implements Runnable {
String addrSocket;
int portSocket;
int TIMEOUT=5000;
public connectSocket(String addr, int port) {
addrSocket = addr;
portSocket = port;
}
@Override
public void run() {
SocketAddress socketAddress = new InetSocketAddress(addrSocket, portSocket);
try {
mSocket.connect(socketAddress, TIMEOUT);
PrintWriter out = new PrintWriter(mSocket.getOutputStream(), true);
out.println("test42");
Log.i("connectSocket()", "Connection Succesful");
} catch (IOException e) {
Log.e("connectSocket()", e.getMessage());
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
class authentification implements Runnable {
private String constructFirstConnectQuery() {
String query = "toto";
return query;
}
@Override
public void run() {
BufferedReader in;
PrintWriter out;
String line = "";
try {
in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(mSocket.getInputStream()));
out = new PrintWriter(mSocket.getOutputStream(), true);
out.println(constructFirstConnectQuery());
while (mSocket.isConnected()) {
line = in.readLine();
Log.e("LINE", "[Current]- " + line);
}
}
catch (IOException e) {e.printStackTrace();}
}
}
