Question

I\'m using paho to send and receive mqtt messages. So far it has been no problem to send the messages, I\'m receiving them by using mosquitto.

Answer 1

You are closing the client down before the broker has time to send the message back.

Also you don't need 2 instance of the client, you can send and receive with just one.

I've edited your code a little, it now will continue to run and receive messages until you kill it.

import org.eclipse.paho.client.mqttv3.IMqttDeliveryToken;
import org.eclipse.paho.client.mqttv3.MqttCallback;
import org.eclipse.paho.client.mqttv3.MqttClient;
import org.eclipse.paho.client.mqttv3.MqttException;
import org.eclipse.paho.client.mqttv3.MqttMessage;

public class PahoDemo implements MqttCallback {

MqttClient client;

public PahoDemo() {
}

public static void main(String[] args) {
    new PahoDemo().doDemo();
}

public void doDemo() {
    try {
        client = new MqttClient("tcp://192.168.118.11:1883", "Sending");
        client.connect();
        client.setCallback(this);
        client.subscribe("foo");
        MqttMessage message = new MqttMessage();
        message.setPayload("A single message from my computer fff"
                .getBytes());
        client.publish("foo", message);
    } catch (MqttException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
}

@Override
public void connectionLost(Throwable cause) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub

}

@Override
public void messageArrived(String topic, MqttMessage message)
        throws Exception {
 System.out.println(message);   
}

@Override
public void deliveryComplete(IMqttDeliveryToken token) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub

}

}

EDIT: added the missing client.setCallback(this)
