Or when my application get NM_HOTSPOT message,can I handle this request just like it is handled by http server? For exam,html control post sth to a url like http://localhost/fake.txt,and I'd like to read \fake.txt in my application and return fake.txt's content to html control

For a while I've had some of my music accessible over the internet and I play it at my friends' house where they have older computers with smaller capacity.
This is how the internet access is setup
1) the file server is running XP Pro with IIS v5 as the webserver
2) I have a "media" folder that is shared within the my home network
3) That same folder is also shared on the IIS webserver (Read-only + Directory Browsing)
4) I forwarded port 80 to the file server in my router
5) I setup an account at dyndns.org (example: myserver.dydns.org)
So if I want to play my music on any computer I browse to http://myserver.dyndns.org/media/ and I get a list of my music folder (categorized as genre/artist/album/01 filename.mp3), for example, if I want to play a specific song, I could browse to http://myserver.dyndns.org/media/genre/artist/album/01 Title.mp3
Here is my problem: I can not play my mp3s on WM5
* If I browse to a file, I only get the option to download the mp3
* If I open Windows Media Player , click on Menu > Library, then click on Menu > OpenUrl, then type the url "http://myserver.dyndns.org/media/genre/artist/album/01 Title.mp3", I get the error message:
"Cannot play the file. The file is either corrupted or the Player does not support the format you are trying to play"
I also have m3u playlists setup in the Media folder. Some have relative urls to the files (for example: ../music/genre/artist/album/01 Title.mp3) while others have the absolute url (e.g. http://myserver.dyndns.org/media/genre/artist/album/01 Title.mp3) . Both play with no problems on the desktop version of WMP, but they will not play on the Mobile version.
After searching the web, I found out that WMM natives supports playlists in the asx format, so I created asx files which WMM loads automatically from the browser but throws the error message:
"Cannot play any items in the playlist. For additional information, on the Now Playing screen, select an item, and then press Menu > Error Details."
Could someone please help resolve this problem.

Tried your dns.org setup on my wizard...great idea. used TCPMP core player to access dns.org site. This will let you stream any content, just add to playlist. Although due to high bitrate of content streaming over edge network not so good, wi-fi works perfect. Now, I have the reverse problem and can not download file through PIE. Could you explain your setup to download and save file?
I am trying to make a program in j2me (using Esmertec JBed) that acts as a web server (that only serves the localhost) and calls a browser to connect to itself.
Sounds simple enough, but I can't get it to work.
I am using the web server code here:
http://javaswamy.blogspot.com/2003/09/j2me-turning-your-phone-into-web.html
and added
"platformRequest("http://localhost/");"
to the end of startApp()
There are 2 problems, though. The JVM cannot open the URL because apparently it cannot run opera while my code is running (it can't run 2 java programs at the same time?)
If I open IE and go to "localhost", I get "Action Canceled".
Anyone has experience with this?
If you are interested, I am trying to make an offline wikipedia reader. I don't want to lose all the formatting, and using the browser to render HTML sounds like the easy way to me (I can even implement links since it runs as the server). I will just write a program to convert all the wikitext to HTML on a PC, and somehow produce a database based on a wikipedia XML dump. There is no HTML renderer for j2me.
Many thanks!
Hi All.
I'm looking for some implementation advice. I hope you can help me
I'm planning to build an application working mostly inside a WebView and some javascript code running inside of it. I need also that the underlying native java code to provide, as a dedicated web server for this WebView, any kind of data (typically json strings) in response to ajax calls made by the javascript program.
A ContentProvider sounds a good idea, mainly because it allows me to addess it using an URL in the javascript code but it only lets me serve static files, so it isn't suitable. I need to generate run-time the answer string to ajax calls.
I hope I explained myself. How can build this kind of private web server?
thanks for all your help.
hi there,
I am developing an android app and need to educate myself on how android apps are hosted.
So I read this site:
http://developer.android.com/distribute/googleplay/start.html[^]
and this site:
http://developer.android.com/distribute/tools/launch-checklist.html[^]
but my question is:
does my finished android app need to be uploaded and hosted on a server?
so when I finish developing it and am ready to deploy to google play store, do I upload my entire app on "my rented server" and then within google play store point to it?
for those of you that have uploaded apps to google play store I would really appreciate some help
another question: the android app I am developing when it opens retrieves a list of names from a database, I currently use XAMPP in which I have created a MYSQL database with a table that contains the names. When I am in my house, I can retrieve the list of names no problem using wifi or just 3g on my phone. However if I am outside and my XAMPP is turned on and then I try and open my app the listview of names is not populated.
Why is that? I am thinking its because my app is not hosted on a server itself, just the database with the names that are used in the listview grid is...
To put an app on the play store you need to upgrade your Google account to a developer account. This costs £20 if I remember correctly and allows you access to the developers console where you upload the finished app in apk format and fill out the description fields etc.

thanks for your reply....
sure I had read what you mentioned on googles developer site.
what you are speaking about is uploading my app to google play store.

For the first question

I'm assuming that when you say server, you mean your own server? If so then no, you can use the Google developer console to upload your app, which uploads the app to Google's servers and therefore can be viewed through the play store (if you choose to put the app in a "published" mode).
Second question:
so when I finish developing it and am ready to deploy to google play store, do I upload my entire app on "my rented server" and then within google play store point to it?

Again, no. The only way to get apps to show up on the Play store is by getting a developer account and using the Google Play Developer Console to publish your app.
Third question:

The database needs to be running on a live site for you to retrieve it from anywhere.
thank you so much for your help, i really appreciate it....
can you help clarify a little further please?
currently I use Eclipse to develop in, XAMPP to host my database and a fileserver that hosts my files.
So when I debug, is the process like this:
myPhone(includes apk file) --> XAMPP(stores names and URL) --> FileServer (Retrieves URL to display in my app)
I'm assuming that when you say server, you mean your own server? If so then no, you can use the Google developer console to upload your app, which uploads the app to Google's servers and therefore can be viewed through the play store (if you choose to put the app in a "published" mode).
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
so does the process when I upload my app to Googles Server look like this:
MyPhone ---> Google Server( to retrieve apk) --> FileServer (to retrieve URL to display in app)
have I understood correctly?
If so then no, you can use the Google developer console to upload your app, which uploads the app to Google's servers and therefore can be viewed through the play store
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
if the above process that includes google server is correct, is there a way I can upload my app to google server without releasing on play store for debugging purposes.
Currently I use XAMPP to host my database on my PC, does this mean I would need to upload XAMPP on google server so that it can retrieve the names and URL I have stored in the phpMyAdmin SQL database?
If the answer to the above is yes, does this mean I need to upload XAMPP to Google Server so it can connect to my FileServer?
The database needs to be running on a live site for you to retrieve it from anywhere.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So I take it using XAMPP means the database is not running on a "live site" ??
How can I host my database live? currently I start XAMPP then use:
localhost/phpmyadmin to log into my SQL database....
Do you mean I need to upload that SQL database to lets say my FileServer so it is live and therefore takes XAMPP out of the process and means I can access my APP (in debug mode) from anywhere?
So sorry I am confused about how google server, XAMPP and my SQL database work...
Thanks for your patience, please continue to help me...
Thank you so much
can anyone please kindly help?
thank you

Depends on what you plan to build
If it can work offline then you generally do not need to rent a server.
If you intent to make MMO online game, chat site, dating site, your own social networking site.. then you will need to rent a server.
Whether or not need a server for the above purposes. Your app is generally hosted on a Google Play server, and be visible to people with play-store apps (technically visible as your app is hard to search for at the beginning, this is another story)
If your app is more than 50mb.. Then you will need your own server. To host the package, containing any data in excess of 50mb. Google will host the first 50mb for you. Your users will have to go start your app to get the rest from your server.
You might want to have your own server for own custom licensing validation and IAP purchasing checks, only if you don't think the google's solution is sufficient.
You can also host on Amazon.

Thanks for your reply
I was hoping for more specific answers in relation to my specific questions...
Well your later questions are more specifically hosting questions less about android related issues
Advice to you is to turn of wifi on your phone, when your are inside and see if you can access your XAMP server.
Can you ping your server IP address (not the local IP 192.168.0.X, assuming its your home server.
Does your ISP allow you to use your home Internet to host a server accessible on the internet? (as above)
