android jmdns,Android - jmdns doesn't discover devices
问题
I'm trying to implement a class to discover services on the network.
I've tried working with Android's NSD and it does discover the services fine, but it supports only API levels 16 and up, and I can't seem to retrieve the txtRecord field within the service info (it returns null for some reason). Turns out it's a known problem...
So now I'm trying to work with jmDNS, which doesn't seem to find services at all.
here's my class (I'm working with the AndroidAnnotations framework) MDnsHelper:
@EBean
public class MDnsHelper implements ServiceListener {
public static final String SERVICE_TYPE = "_http._tcp.local";
Activity activity;
private JmDNS jmdns;
private MulticastLock multicastLock;
WifiManager wm;
InetAddress bindingAddress;
boolean isDiscovering;
public void init(Activity activity) {
this.activity = activity;
isDiscovering = false;
wm = (WifiManager) activity.getSystemService(Context.WIFI_SERVICE);
multicastLock = wm.createMulticastLock(activity.getPackageName());
multicastLock.setReferenceCounted(false);
}
@Background
public void startDiscovery() {
if (isDiscovering)
return;
System.out.println("starting...");
multicastLock.acquire();
try {
System.out.println("creating jmdns");
jmdns = JmDNS.create();
System.out.println("jmdns created");
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
if (jmdns != null) {
jmdns.addServiceListener(SERVICE_TYPE, MDnsHelper.this);
isDiscovering = true;
System.out.println("discovering services of type: " + SERVICE_TYPE);
}
}
}
@Background
public void stopDiscovery() {
if (!isDiscovering || jmdns == null)
return;
System.out.println("stopping...");
multicastLock.release();
jmdns.removeServiceListener(SERVICE_TYPE, MDnsHelper.this);
System.out.println("listener for " + SERVICE_TYPE + " removed");
try {
jmdns.close();
isDiscovering = false;
System.out.println("jmdns closed");
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
@Override
public void serviceAdded(ServiceEvent service) {
System.out.println("found: " + service.getInfo().toString());
}
@Override
public void serviceRemoved(ServiceEvent service) {
System.out.println("lost: " + service.getInfo().toString());
}
@Override
public void serviceResolved(ServiceEvent service) {
System.out.println("resolved: " + service.getInfo().toString());
}
}
And in my app I call:
init(getActivity());
And then startDiscovery(); to start scanning and stopDiscovery(); to stop scanning.
And of course, I gave the app the required permissions in the manifest...
What am I missing here?
If you need me to provide additional code/info - just ask.
thanks!!

I am the author of ZeroConf Browser for Android and I use the open source Library JmDNS for all my resolving. It works great but there are a few tricks to getting it to work properly.
In your Android manifest.xml make sure you have these permissions at least.
Before starting the activity you must allow multi-cast packets by acquiring a multicast lock.
@Override
protected void onStart() {
Log.i(TAG, "Starting ServiceActivity...");
super.onStart();
try {
Log.i(TAG, "Starting Mutlicast Lock...");
WifiManager wifi = (WifiManager) this.getSystemService(Context.WIFI_SERVICE);
// get the device ip address
final InetAddress deviceIpAddress = getDeviceIpAddress(wifi);
multicastLock = wifi.createMulticastLock(getClass().getName());
multicastLock.setReferenceCounted(true);
multicastLock.acquire();
Log.i(TAG, "Starting ZeroConf probe....");
jmdns = JmDNS.create(deviceIpAddress, HOSTNAME);
jmdns.addServiceTypeListener(this);
} catch (IOException ex) {
Log.e(TAG, ex.getMessage(), ex);
}
Log.i(TAG, "Started ZeroConf probe....");
}
private InetAddress getDeviceIpAddress(WifiManager wifi) {
InetAddress result = null;
try {
// default to Android localhost
result = InetAddress.getByName("10.0.0.2");
// figure out our wifi address, otherwise bail
WifiInfo wifiinfo = wifi.getConnectionInfo();
int intaddr = wifiinfo.getIpAddress();
byte[] byteaddr = new byte[] { (byte) (intaddr & 0xff), (byte) (intaddr >> 8 & 0xff),
(byte) (intaddr >> 16 & 0xff), (byte) (intaddr >> 24 & 0xff) };
result = InetAddress.getByAddress(byteaddr);
} catch (UnknownHostException ex) {
Log.w(TAG, String.format("getDeviceIpAddress Error: %s", ex.getMessage()));
}
return result;
}
And don't forget on stopping the scan to unlock the multicast lock and shut down JmDNS.
@Override
protected void onStop() {
Log.i(TAG, "Stopping ServiceActivity...");
super.onStop();
stopScan();
}
private static void stopScan() {
try {
if (jmdns != null) {
Log.i(TAG, "Stopping ZeroConf probe....");
jmdns.unregisterAllServices();
jmdns.close();
jmdns = null;
}
if (multicastLock != null) {
Log.i(TAG, "Releasing Mutlicast Lock...");
multicastLock.release();
multicastLock = null;
}
} catch (Exception ex) {
Log.e(TAG, ex.getMessage(), ex);
}
}
Most importanty don't use the default constructor. You must use the IP Address Constructor. I noticed in your code you are just doing JmDNS.create(). I think for some reason the only way it works on Android is to use the contructor below.
jmdns = JmDNS.create(deviceIpAddress, HOSTNAME);

If you are having this error in Android Oreo 8.x, this might help you.
First, Remember to make sure you have added these permissions into your Android manifest.xml.
Acquire a multicast lock to allow multi-cast packets.
WifiManager wifi = (WifiManager) getSystemService(Context.WIFI_SERVICE);
MulticastLock lock = wifi.createMulticastLock("jmdns-multicast-lock");
lock.setReferenceCounted(true);
lock.acquire();
Now, use only this constructor JmDNS.create(InetAddress addr, String name) to create an instance of JmDNS and bind it to a specific network interface given its IP-address, like this:
try {
jmDNS = JmDNS.create(InetAddress.getByName(obtainIPv4Address(info)), HOST_NAME);
} catch (IOException e) {
LogHelper.e(TAG, "Error in JmDNS creation: " + e);
}
Finally, just make sure to call JmDNSunreisterAllServices(), and JmDNS.close() to stop JmDNS stream and releases any system resources associated with it. Also, call MulticastLock.release() to unlock the multicast lock when you're done with it.
try {
if (jmDNS != null) {
jmDNS.unregisterAllServices();
jmDNS.close();
jmDNS = null;
}
if (lock != null) {
lock.release();
lock = null;
}
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
