The whole ADB system has three roles,

  1. adb client:on PC or anywhere;
  2. adb server: on PC;
  3. adbd: on android device;

The first time we call adb.exe devices, (here is the adb client)
it will launch a daemon process like adb -L tcp:5037 fork-server server --reply-fd 252 in background.(here is the adb server)

The daemon process open a localhost TCP connection listenning on port 5037,
and actually, the adb.exe devices command is doing like this:

client:000chost:version
server:OKAY00040027

client:000chost:devices
server:OKAY00189TXXX7	device

Notice:there is a \t in each line of devices results.

so, it's clear now.
Send 000chost:devices to localhost:5037, and we could read the result to device list.

For more command,anyone could use wireshark to capture the tcp communication.

I have tried this way in the past development.
Later gave up, and then left an empty folder.

If implemented, it will completely change the way the Autumn Box interacts with ADB
