Simple Socket Tool

Developers who need to establish communication between different Java-based apps have the choice of resorting to Java Socket programming, which can be both connection-oriented, or connection-less. The main working principle is constituted by two components, namely a server and corresponding client.

Designed specifically in order to tackle the issues that might arise when running Java Socket, Simple Socket Tool will provide users with the means to create the server and client components for the connection. The application will allow one to send the resulting data in HEX format and, if required, save it to disk, for offline use.

Created as a single, portable instance, Simple Socket Tool requires of users to have Java installed on their machines, in order to function. The app will allow one to store the conversations in binary files, and the aforementioned HEX mode can be tuned to either send or receive the byte values.

Last but not least, the application’s settings bank offers two main modes for the operating process, one being the said HEX data, and the second, a plain, text mode. To add to that, users can always choose for the app to echo the sent data.
