Experiment 7: Client-Server Program using TCP/IP sockets Using TCP/IP
sockets, write a client – server program to make the client send the file name
and to make the server send back the contents of the requested file if
present.
TCPServer Program:
import [Link].*;
import [Link].*;
public class TCPServer {
public static void main(String args[]) throws Exception {
// Create a server socket on port 4000
ServerSocket serverSocket = new ServerSocket(4000);
[Link]("Server ready for connection...");
// Wait for a client to connect
Socket socket = [Link]();
[Link]("Connection successful. Waiting for file request...");
// Get filename from client
BufferedReader fileRequest = new BufferedReader(new
InputStreamReader([Link]()));
String fileName = [Link]();
[Link]("Client requested file: " + fileName);
// Read contents of the file
BufferedReader fileReader;
try {
fileReader = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(fileName));
} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
PrintWriter errorWriter = new PrintWriter([Link](),
true);
[Link]("ERROR: File not found on server.");
[Link]();
[Link]();
return;
// Prepare to send file content
PrintWriter writer = new PrintWriter([Link](), true);
String line;
while ((line = [Link]()) != null) {
[Link](line);
[Link]("File transfer completed.");
// Close everything
[Link]();
[Link]();
[Link]();
[Link]();
[Link]();
}
TCPClient Program:
import [Link].*;
import [Link].*;
public class TCPClient {
public static void main(String args[]) throws Exception {
// Connect to server
Socket socket = new Socket("[Link]", 4000);
// Read filename from keyboard
[Link]("Enter the file name: ");
BufferedReader userInput = new BufferedReader(new
InputStreamReader([Link]));
String fileName = [Link]();
// Send filename to server
PrintWriter writer = new PrintWriter([Link](), true);
[Link](fileName);
// Receive and print file contents
BufferedReader socketReader = new BufferedReader(new
InputStreamReader([Link]()));
String line;
[Link]("\n--- File contents received from server ---\n");
while ((line = [Link]()) != null) {
[Link](line);
}
// Close all connections
[Link]();
[Link]();
[Link]();
[Link]();
