Socket Programming in Java: Chat Application
Names: ....................................................................
Student No.: .................... ……………………………

I. Objectives
1. Practice with Socket programming in Java
2. Build a simple chat application using client-server model
3. Multithreaded application in Java

II. Content
1. Socket programming in Java
Consider the following code:

try {
// Get hostname by textual representation of IP address
InetAddress addr = InetAddress.getByName("127.0.0.1");
// Get hostname by a byte array containing the IP address
byte[] ipAddr = new byte[]{127, 0, 0, 1};
addr = InetAddress.getByAddress(ipAddr);
// Get the host name
String hostname = addr.getHostName();
// Get canonical host name
String hostnameCanonical = addr.getCanonicalHostName();
}
catch (UnknownHostException e) {
}

Exercise 1:

Create a program that connects to a web server and downloads the homepage of this
website to local computer.

Ex.: You can test your program with: www.google.com

2. Develop a simple chat application using client-server model

Server application Client application


Create a server socket
Listen and wait for incoming connection Identify server IP and port
request
Create a TCP socket to the server
Establish a connection to the server
Accept the connection request
Send/Receive data Send/Receive data
Close connection
Close connection

Exercise 2: Design the user interface for the chat application

3. Multithread in Java

Create an application that has multiple threads running concurrently:

1. class PrimeRun implements Runnable {


2. long minPrime;
3. PrimeRun ( long minPrime ) {
4. this.minPrime = minPrime;
5. }
6. public void run() {
7. // compute primes larger than minPrime

8. . . .
9. }
10. }
11. PrimeRun p = new PrimeRun(143);
12. new Thread(p).start();

Stop a thread:

Try to use Thread.interrupt() as in the following code and see what happens.

public void stop() {


running = false;
this.interrupt();
}
public void run() {
running = true;
while (running){
Socket s = socket.accept();
...
}
}

public void stop() {


running = false;
this.interrupt();
}
public void run() {
running = true;
while (running){
Socket s = socket.accept();
...
}
}
