QuickServer is an open source Java library/framework for quick creation
of robust multi-client TCP server applications.
QuickServer provides an abstraction over the ServerSocket, Socket and
other network and input output classes and it eases the creation of
powerful network servers.
Example programs demonstrating the use of the library can be found
with the QuickServer distribution [examples folder].
In any programming language, socket programming is not small fleet to
most programmer and creating a multi-threaded multi-client network server
is a nightmare for most programmers. We always waste time in
writing the same code each time we build a new software which acts
has network server (handles multiple socket connections). I always create
such application, so this time I have made a library - QuickServer, to
handle a creation of a multi-threaded, multi-client server applications
for Java. With this library one can just concentrate on just the application
logic/protocol on hand.
QuickServer divides the application logic of its developer over eight
main classes,
- ClientEventHandler [Optional Class]
Handles client events.
- ClientCommandHandler [#]
Handles client interaction - Character/String commands.
- ClientBinaryHandler [#]
Handles client interaction - Binary data.
- ClientObjectHandler [#]
Handles client interaction - Java Object commands.
- ClientWriteHandler [Optional Class]
Handles client write operation - Non-Blocking Mode.
- ClientAuthenticationHandler [Optional Class]
Used to Authenticate a client.
- ClientData [Optional Class]
Client data carrier (support class)
- ClientExtendedEventHandler [Optional Class]
Handles extended client events.
[#] = Any one of these have to be set based on default DataMode for input.
The default DataMode for input is String so if not changes you will
have to set ClientCommandHandler.
