Socket Programming Basics in Java

Socket programming in Java requires three main components - hardware, a medium, and software. It uses sockets which are endpoints for two-way communication and are defined by a protocol, IP address, and port number. Common protocols are TCP and UDP. To create a client socket, a Socket object is instantiated with an IP address and port number. For a server socket, a ServerSocket object is created to listen on a port for client connections. Sockets perform operations like connecting, sending data, receiving data, and closing connections.

Socket Programming in Java

The First Step of Network Programming

Outline

Introduction A step to socket programming - Protocol - IP address - Port Number Client Socket Server Socket Conclusion

Device Network
.

A device network is an interconnected collection of remote devices.

Basic Concept

Socket programming requires three things viz. Hardware (H/W)-router, repeaters & switch Medium- wire based & wireless

Software (S/W)- web browser, server applications

Socket

Socket is one of end point of two way communication. Socket =Protocol+Ip Address+ Port Number.

Protocol

Protocol Set of rule for communication. Protocol-http,ftp,smtp. TCP-Transmission Control Protocol. Connection Oriented. Trusted protocol. UDP-User Datagram Protocol. Connectionless . UnTrusted Protocol.

Protocol
.
High Level Protocol

Protocol
Low Level/Carrier protocol

TCP

UDP

IP Address

This is 4-byte number . Use: identify a particular device uniquely on the network.
Network Address

IP Address
Node Address

Port Number

It just a logical number. Each application have a port number. The range 0- 1023 is already reserve by high level application.

Interchange The Socket


.

Socket Operations

There are four fundamental operations a socket performs. These are:


[Link] to a remote machine 2. Send data 3. Receive data 4. Close the connection

Constructing a Clint Socket

Import [Link] Create A Socket Class Object. Pass the IPAddress and Port Number as a argument in their Constructor . Create Proper Exception Handler.

Example Clint Socket


Import [Link].*; Socket MyClient; try {
MyClient = new Socket("Machine name",PortNumber);

} catch (IOException e) { [Link](e); }

Constructing Server Socket

When implementing a server you need to create a socket object from the ServerSocket in order to listen for and accept connections from clients. Import [Link] Create anObject of ServerSocket class. Give a port number to their constructor. Call the accept() method by their reference.

Example Server Socket


import [Link].*; ServerSocket MyService; try {
MyServerice = new ServerSocket(PortNumber); Socket S = [Link]();

} catch (IOException e) { [Link](e); }

Closing The Sockets

You should always close the output and input stream before you close the socket. [Link](); [Link](); [Link](); [Link](); [Link]();

Conclusion

Socket programming implementation is given by more technologies. Java7 technology providing high performance network stream.
