Produce an application that sends a
string to a server specifying a filename, and the server opens that file and reads it. The file name and it contents are then sent to a client residing �somewhere� on the network.
Above is the problem specification. Below is the list of code of two
java files and what they are doing is: Client asking the file to be transfered to the server (e.g. H:/raheel.txt) and then server is reading the contents of the file and then again server is requesting for the output i.e. where to save file and again client is giving the path (e.g. H:/temp.txt). What i really don't understand is with the last sentence of the problem specification i.e. "The file name and it contents are then sent to a client residing �somewhere� on the network" and how it will work out. I would really appreciate if someone please look into this for me, cheers.
