Android TCP Socket

Question

I am trying to create a new TCP socket in an android emulator. Below is the Android code:

Socket s = new Socket("111.221.88.15", 8080);

But I keep getting UnknownHost Exception. I can create a connection in a C # windows application.

The site is a test project developed in Microsoft Azure. URL: http://tcptest24.cloudapp.net/

I tried to use the URL instead of the IP address and its various variations, but I keep getting the same error.

I hope that we will get bad early response, because I get paid :) and the site is not needed without a client.

Thanks, Anil

You need to add permission INTERNET

to your manifest.

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"></uses-permission>
