Using Serialization with Sockets

Running the Example:

Complete the following procedure to compile and run the two examples:

1. From yourbasedir/objectserializationexamples/UsingSockets, compile the files Server.java and Client.java using JDK^TM1.1 or higher:

     javac Server.java
     javac Client.java 
   

2. Run the Server:

     java Server
   

3. Suspend the Server, using Ctrl/Z on UNIX systems.
   
4. Put the Server in the background, using the following command on UNIX systems:

     bg
   

5. Run the Client:

     java Client
   

Using sockets and serialization, the current date is sent from the client to the server, which then prints out the date.
