Is there open source TCP server for android clients?

Question

I searching for an open source TCP server that can be configured on the computer to work as server for client applications for Android. As I want to create messaging services between Android devices,

I've found Apache Mina open source TCP server, does it work for android OS ?

edit

sorry, for Mina, I don't mean the server, I mean the general framework. Can I create android java client for android using Apache Mina

I assume you can open TCP sockets in android. Then there's no "does it work for android OS". It's a TCP server, it works for everything. — Sergio Tulentsev, Dec 25 '11 at 18:01
You can create TCP Sockets, but TCP is a transport layer protocol only. The "Server" means, it should have an Application layer protocol, just like HTTP, SMTP etc. — Vishnu Haridas, Dec 25 '11 at 18:28

As a tcp server I use a simple java application which consists of 1 class. Here it is. Hope this will help you!

import java.net.*;
import java.io.*;

public class PortMonitor {
    private static int port = 8080;


    /**
     * JavaProgrammingForums.com
     */
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {

        //Port to monitor
        final int myPort = port;
        ServerSocket ssock = new ServerSocket(myPort);
        System.out.println("port " + myPort + " opened");

        Socket sock = ssock.accept();
        System.out.println("Someone has made socket connection");

        OneConnection client = new OneConnection(sock);
        String s = client.getRequest();

    }

}

class OneConnection {
    Socket sock;
    BufferedReader in = null;
    DataOutputStream out = null;

    OneConnection(Socket sock) throws Exception {
        this.sock = sock;
        in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(sock.getInputStream()));
        out = new DataOutputStream(sock.getOutputStream());
    }

    String getRequest() throws Exception {
        String s = null;
        while ((s = in.readLine()) != null) {
            System.out.println("got: " + s);
        }
        return s;
    }
}

I don't want to use a simple example, I want to work on a more complex project, where the efficiency and scalability are the most things I matter about — Adham, Dec 26 '11 at 12:05
