i've done an application in which the android application send datas to java desktop swing application as well as send datas from desktop to android using TCP socket programming through wifi.
Th application is a Hotel Kitchen order booking system
The problem describes that Dine_Tables class contains buttons which represents each tables in a hotel, on clicking table1 button for example it starts the BackgroundServers Asyntask which runs a server for receiving desktop application datas also it takes the activity from Dinein_Tables.java to Food_Customizer.java.
In Food_Customizer.java on clicking submit button it starts ServersendAsyncAction Asyntask which sends some datas to desktop swing application.
The desktop application after processing sends some datas to android application, The server that runs in the android application on receiving the datas goes again from Food_Customizer.java to Dinein_Tables.java activity in the BackgroundServers Asyntask onPostExecute method.
The problem is that when i do this process a two or three times the application stop due to address-in use and Null-Pointer exception at socket = serverSocket.accept(); in the BackgroundServers Asyntask.
Can anyone please tell me some solution for this problem
Dinein_Tables.java
public class Dinein_Tables extends Activity {
:
:
table1.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(final View v) {
new Handler().postDelayed(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
Food_Customizer.BackgroundServers ob = new Food_Customizer().new BackgroundServers(contexts);
ob.execute("");
Intent toAnotherActivity = new Intent(v.getContext(), Food_Customizer.class);
startActivity(toAnotherActivity);
finish();
}
}, 100L);
}
});
}
Food_Customizer.java
public class Food_Customizer extends Activity {
:
:
submit= (Button)findViewById(R.id.submit);
submit.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View view) {
pd = ProgressDialog.show(contexts, "Sending to Server...","Please Wait...", true, false);
new ServersendAsyncAction().execute();
}
});
