Java/Network Protocol/Compressed Connection

Use Java"s compression classes to reduce the amount of data sent over a socket

   <source lang="java">

import java.io.BufferedReader; import java.io.FileReader; import java.net.ServerSocket; import java.net.Socket; import java.util.zip.GZIPInputStream; import java.util.zip.GZIPOutputStream; public class CompRcv {

 public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
   ServerSocket ssock = new ServerSocket(Integer.parseInt(args[0]));
   System.out.println("Listening");
   Socket sock = ssock.accept();
   GZIPInputStream zip = new GZIPInputStream(sock.getInputStream());
   while (true) {
     int c;
     c = zip.read();
     if (c == -1)
       break;
     System.out.print((char) c);
   }
 }

} class CompSend {

 public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
   Socket sock = new Socket(args[0], Integer.parseInt(args[1]));
   GZIPOutputStream zip = new GZIPOutputStream(sock.getOutputStream());
   String line;
   BufferedReader bis = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(args[2]));
   while (true) {
     try {
       line = bis.readLine();
       if (line == null)
         break;
       line = line + "\n";
       zip.write(line.getBytes(), 0, line.length());
     } catch (Exception e) {
       break;
     }
   }
   zip.finish();
   zip.close();
   sock.close();
