Hi,
I want to develop an applet that connects to a server
and does something similar to RPCs using java.*.* classes
for portability. From what I am gathering, a good way to do
this would be to implement something in sockets on both ends,
the server end being a java application that creates a thread
for each new connection. The server would call C or C++ functions
and return the appropriate info back through the socket to
the client.
What I am looking for is a sanity check on the approach,
and code snippets (pre-beta1) that you have used successfully.
Also, I'm unclear on the security restriction says an applet
can't make connections to places other than the applet's source.
Does this mean that I can't open a socket on a different machine,
or is it referring to other types of connections?
Thanks,
Jim Weaver
