android resolve .local (mDNS)

问题

I'm looking for a solution to resolve .local host names with Android 4.0.4 (no NSD, due to API level 15). On the device I don't have any service to discover, just the hostname. Could you please provide an example how to resolve? I integrated the jmDNS, but don't know how to use for host name resolving.

win-cmd:

ping kcmeasurement.local

Pinging kcmeasurement.local [10.202.0.29] with 32 bytes of data:
Reply from 10.202.0.29: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=64
...

Thank you,

Daniel

I had almost the same requirements as your question, apart from the requirement to use jmDNS, so I solved it with NSD. I realize this doesn't address your question exactly, but thought it might still be somewhat helpful for yourself and others to see how I solved it.

I setup an NSD discovery listener and an NSD resolve listener, and within the discovery listener code, added a filter for the target host name (e.g. "kcmeasurement", or in my case, "garagedoor").

There is a blog post here which explains in detail how to do that. Refer to steps 3-4, which are dealing with the Android App code required.

For your case, I would imagine you would have to do the equivalent process but just using the jmDNS library instead of NSD.

You should be able to use the InetAddress class to resolve the hostname for a given IP address. For example, using the IP address provided in the original question, try the following:

try
{
    String hostname = InetAddress.getByName("10.202.0.29").getHostName();
}
catch (UnknownHostException e)
{
    Log.e("MyApplication", "Attempt to resolve host name failed");
}

Since this is a network operation, make sure that it is not performed on the UI thread.

EDIT

You should be able to resolve a local hostname with jmDNS as follows:

InetAddress localHost = InetAddress.getByName("10.202.0.29");
JmDNS jmdns = JmDNS.create(localHost);
String localHostName = jmdns.getHostName();
