I am unsure if i understand you question, it may be that programs communicating with a server do not need to identify themselves to a server, they merely send/receive data.
While some programs, such as browsers do identify themselves, this is not always true. I would suggest that you practice with a normal server setup, and once you have a method that works you can begin to port that method for your app. Regards, Fred On 24 June 2012 16:51, Ami Turgman <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi All, > > > I have an android native application which hosts a web server inside it. > > I want to know which application makes requests before they are processed > by my application. > > What I have is the port of the calling application. > > > How can I find out which application is using this port? > > I've tried looking for all processes (cat /proc/net/tcp6), but the > application with the port I have is not listed (on a rooted device it is). > > > I need to find a way to find the calling application name on a regular > device (not rooted). > > > Any help is highly appriciated. > > > Thanks! > > Ami. > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google > Groups "Android Developers" group. > To post to this group, send email to [email protected] > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > [email protected] > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers?hl=en -- Magnetic Door Alarm app<https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nds.magneticdooralarm>is now available in Google Play -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
