Section 6: sockets III


simple client-server communication

A simple client-server communication setup using sockets.

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

public class App {

public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {

//Server
String hostname = "www.oreilly.com";

ServerSocket ss = new ServerSocket(1286);


Socket s =ss.accept();
OutputStream socketOutStream = s.getOutputStream();
DataOutputStream socketDos = new DataOutputStream(socketOutStream);
socketDos.writeUTF("Hello World!");
socketDos.close();
socketOutStream.close();
s.close();
ss.close();

// Client
Socket s = new Socket("localhost",1286);
InputStream sIn = s.getInputStream();
DataInputStream socketDis = new DataInputStream(sIn);
String testString = new String(socketDis.readUTF());
System.out.println(testString);
socketDis.close();
sIn.close();
s.close();

}
}

Let's break down what each part of the code does:

1. Server Side

- It begins by setting up a server on port 1286 using `ServerSocket`.


- It then waits for a client connection using `accept()` method.

- Once a client connects, it obtains the output stream from the socket, wraps it with
`DataOutputStream`, and sends the string "Hello World!" to the client using `writeUTF()`
method.

- Finally, it closes the streams and sockets.

2. Client Side:

- It creates a socket and connects to the server running on localhost (127.0.0.1) on port 1286
using `Socket` class.

- Then, it gets the input stream from the socket, wraps it with `DataInputStream`, and reads the
string sent by the server using `readUTF()` method.

- It prints the received string ("Hello World!") to the console.

- Finally, it closes the streams and socket.

Here's a step-by-step execution flow:

- Comment a client. Then run the server code, it will wait for a client to connect.

- within running comment the server code, run a client code to connect.
- When you run the client code, it connects to the server.

- The server sends "Hello World!" to the client.

- The client receives "Hello World!" and prints it to the console.
