Hello When I run this host app on my RPi2 and connect with the Android app and force close it on Android, RPi2 host app closes without any error message. Can someone confirm this? Remember to force close the Android app, you might have to try a few times. I connect through a WAN ip that is directed to the RPi2

EDIT: I think that it happens when sending data to all clients (EDIT2: where one of these clients have been force closed), or to a single, but force closed client.

Host app for RPi2:


And here is the Android code:

Anyone? I use my RPi2 as a cost efficient test host. I have a small app that uses online functions hosted on the RPi2. The app is on Google Play in closed alpha, but it is a problem that clients cannot be force closed without chrashing the host :-(

Broadcasting the app to Android will do just fine, it still happens. Could someone please confirm this bug? I do not know if the same bug happens if you use an iOS device as I don't have one yet. It is kinda hard to have an online app if force closing the client app causes the server app to close.

Thank you very much Jack

EDIT: It is possible that it also happens with host app running on Windows (and maybe other systems as well), but these systems are usually running on a faster machine and they might do something very fast that the RPi2 don't achieve to do before the next packet is sent. THIS IS NOT FOR SURE! I have just experienced the same thing on Windows a few times.
