> Thanks for answering, do you have a code example, please
Cedric,
Nothing that I'm at liberty to share, unfortunately, but it's not too complicated. Here are the basic steps:
On the applet side:
Create a URL object which identifies the servlet's URL
Use the URL object to get a URLConnection to the servlet
Create an ObjectOutputStream which wraps the output stream from the connection
Write your object(s) on the stream using writeObject(), then close the stream
Create an ObjectInputStream to handle the response from the servlet
Read the response object(s) from the servlet using readObject()
Do something with the response
On the servlet side:
In service(): create an ObjectInputStream and an ObjectOutputStream
Read the object(s) from the input stream using readObject()
Process the input
Write the response object(s) to the output stream using writeObject()
Close the streams
