Bonjour/ZeroConf Implementation for Android(HoneyComb)

I am trying to implement bonjour/zero conf on my android app for Android tablet using Honeycomb. I am using jmDns library for searching the all the available devices. I need a list of android devices connected to wifi.

Basically, i am adding them in a list so that i can display a list of all available devices. Now when I am running this code on emulator, nothing is added to my list( but there are 5-6 devices in the list)

Can anyone please help in providing some code snippet. I am not sure if bonjour/zero conf is supported by Honeycomb or its a problem with my emulator. Thanx in advance

Emulator has a private virtual network between it and host machine. Zeroconf uses broadcast to query for devices and this query only propagates on this virtual network.
