Java Sockets - 实时传输

Question

i got this code form Android-er blogspot, big thanks for him to make me almost understand basic socket connections in java. So i got this client app on my android device, and computer with server running, but how could i make a loop in a client code, to make it send data from EditText in real time? (whenever it changes) Please if someone could clear it out for a complete newbie?

Answer 1

There are a few things you will need to change.

First of all, if you want the data to be sent in real time, you will need to change from using a Button OnClickListener to using a TextWatcher (see addTextChangedListener in TextView )

As this event will be fired every time the text changes, you will need to open your socket outside of the event (you don't want a new socket each time some text is typed), and then in your listener, you just want to send the new data down the socket.

Answer 2

You can set a text changed listener on your EditText and do the sending from there.

edittext.addTextChangedListener(new TextWatcher() {
    public void onTextChanged(CharSequence charSequence, int start, int before, int count) {
 // ... do your sending here
}

But beware that if that sending is not asynchronous, it may block text entry for the user. Network latency can be relatively high on GSM networks, so the user may be irritated, when his freshly typed characters will not immediately appear on screen.
