Telnet on Android
I need to create an Android app that does a telnet session to a router and the n processes several command line arguments. Livecode's Android support doesn't currently support sockets so can anyone recommend a solution? The app does simply what I have described...when launched there should be a couple of buttons and nothing else. thanks, Glen ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
Re: Telnet on Android
Hi Glen, Can you tell more about this? Is this a router in an existing network environment? Is this a router that is yet to be designed? Can you alter the software in the router? Normally, you'd log in on a router over http and change the settings in your internet browser. I would expect this to be possible on an Android device too. If you can't change the software in the router and you can't write an external to use sockets, then you're probably out of options, unless you want to use ugly hacks like using another server in the middle. -- Best regards, Mark Schonewille Economy-x-Talk Consulting and Software Engineering Homepage: http://economy-x-talk.com Twitter: http://twitter.com/xtalkprogrammer KvK: 50277553 Use Color Converter to convert CMYK, RGB, RAL, XYZ, H.Lab and other colour spaces. http://www.color-converter.com Buy my new book Programming LiveCode for the Real Beginner http://qery.us/3fi LiveCode on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/runrev/ On 3/19/2014 10:48, Glen Bojsza wrote: I need to create an Android app that does a telnet session to a router and the n processes several command line arguments.

Re: Telnet on Android
The router already is designed, built and deployed. Needs to be telnet since the app will use a special purpose command line built only for a specific admin level access so there are no other options. Believe it or not but the tablet connects via ethernet to the router...this is a very special application so I may need to go outside of Livecode from the looks of it.

Re: Telnet on Android
Coming in 6.6 is a 'secure socket' command (mentioned in the RC announcements). It is in RC 1 and RC 2, but I haven't looked to see if it is cross-platform. I would hope yes.

That depends on your point of view, or your context. For me, I'd say you normally telnet (or similar) to a router and use the efficient, all-powerful command line interface. The majority of routers (Juniper, Cisco, Draytek, Netgear, ...) support a telnet interface. OK, recent consumer routers will usually recommend browser-style interfaces - but there's 20 years of tradition before that using telnet-like interfaces to control routers. At least some routers will have configuration options or commands that are not available, or relatively clumsy to use, through an HTTP interface. -- Alex. ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
Re: Telnet on Android
Is there an option to possibly open process from LC on Android and then work with a third party telnet client that we would need to identify and have installed on the table? Does LC's open process work on Android? On Wed, Mar 19, 2014 at 7:41 PM, Alex Tweedly a...@tweedly.net wrote: On 19/03/2014 09:59, Mark Schonewille wrote: Can you tell more about this?
