What does this mean?
in command line I an giving IP of a machine where DB is present, Now on that same machine if I give the same IP, then in my appn I ask, if this appn to be started in distributed server mode or standalone appn.
Otherwise, my appn starts as a distributed client.
If mine description matches with ur phrase "mode switch on fly" ?

I used BorderLayout with three panel in north, center and south area.
"mode swith on-the-fly" means:
the connection mode is not given at command line, but will be choosed by client via GUI Menu "File->connect->" after the client GUI is startup. And client can switch connection mode without restart, provided he/she disconnect the current first.
