Socket Wrong Connection and Timeout Problem.

Hi. I am having some issues with sockets disconnecting due to a timeout.

I have 3 different programs talking to each other using sockets. The Command Center (CC) sends messages to the Modal Manager (MM). The Modal Manger can send messages to the VR App. I have this working to the point where the Command Center (running on my PC) can send a message to the Modal Manager (running on my Android device), to launch another app. I can then send a message from the Command Center to the Modal Manages asking it to kill the app it launched, and that works fine.

Now I wanted to add a response from the Modal Manger to the Command Center. Basically, I just want the Command Center to ask the Modal Manger to report the temperature. I thought that this would be simple enough, but when the Modal Manger receive the message from the Command Center, it reports that there is a timeout on the socket.

One interesting thing is that if I run both the Modal Manager and the Command Center on my PC in the editor, everything seems to work fine. I just change the IP addresses of both to 127.0.0.1

So it seems like I am passing messages in one direction correctly, but my response causes the issue.

The relevant code is attached.

This is my log from ADB Logcat

Thanks in advance for any help.

I was able to figure this out. I had to have only the client do socket connections, and have the host then use the receive connection ID to send messages back. I was doing a connection on both sides of the socket, and the connection ID returned from the connect command was not the same as what was received from the receive command.

Thanks anywaay.
