I'm new in the field of servlet/JSP and a friend told me that servlet
could be usefull for
the website I want to create.
Well, I'll try to explain it as simple as I can :
GOAL:
--------
I want that a client applet (on the browser side) send data to a server.
Then the server can send back data to the client according to the client
input data.
Of course, the server must be able to receive data from multiple client.
Moreover, server must also be able to send data (multicast) to a group
of connected
client.
I don't want to use port other than those used by browser (so Port 80).
APPROACHES:
--------------------
1) The first approach that came to my mind was to establish a socket on
port 80 between client applet and server application.
Will this approach be OK for what I want?
2) The second approach a friend suggest me was to have an applet on
client side that use servlet to create connection to the server.
Is it possible?
Is it fast?
What are the advantage & disadvantage of both approach?
NOTE: If someone has some links on a doc or src doing this kind of job,
I'll be very happy.
Best regards,
Alan.
