I'm not sure.  It's embedded code.  I'm guessing they're using sockets.  I'm 
just calling cloneAsClientObject.

Hello,

How do you send the generated output from the server to the client?
If you're sending bytes through a Socket, then a SocketOutputStream is the best 
way (use Socket#getOutputStream).
If you're saving the bytes into a temp file, then you could use a 
FileOutputStream.

(Both of them must be wrapped in a BufferedOutputStream for better 
performances).

HTH,
