I am trying to create a tic – tac – toe type of game

  • 0

I am trying to create a tic – tac – toe type of game where two androids can play with each other. I am trying to build this game using eclipse SDK and a servlet written in PHP (or I can use Java if needed). The diagram is attached ( http://www.scorechase.com/tictactoe.PNG ) which depicts one side of the data flow. Here is the problem

1] How do I identify the two emulators?
2] When the device 1 sends an “X” to the servlet, how do I push the message to device 2 so that the message gets populated on device 2.

I did this long back in J2ME where I used the push API to push the data after the devices registered a listener on the servlet. I am not sure how to achieve this in Android. Any ideas will be really helpful.

Thanks!

    To use it, an app on the Android device registers with Google, and gets back a registration ID. It then sends that ID to the webapp – via whatever mechanism it chooses. To send a message to the device, the webapp sends an authenticated message to the Android push API, which takes care of delivering it to the device. The push messages themselves consist mostly of a notification of new data, so it’s up to the app to actually fetch the new data directly from the webapp.

    Push API in android is to be used
