In general, the test +programs do more or less the same thing -- the client establishes a +connection with the server and then transfers data to the server, +which keeps printing the data until EOF is reached (e.g., user types +^D). + +Unless noted differently, the server is implemented as an "iterative +server," i.e., it only deals with one client at a time. The following +describes each set of tests in more detail: + + . C-{inclient,inserver}.cpp -- This is basically a C code + implementation that opens a connection to the server and + sends all the data from the stdin using Internet domain + sockets (i.e., TCP). + + . CPP-{inclient,inserver}.cpp -- This test is + a more sophisticated C++ wrapper version of the preceeding + "C" test using Internet domain sockets (i.e., TCP). + It allows you to test oneway and twoway socket communication + latency and throughput between two processes on the same + machine or on different machines. + + . CPP-inserver-fancy.cpp -- This program is a more glitzy + version of CPP-inserver.cpp that illustrates additional + features of ACE, such as ACE_Svc_Handler. + + . CPP-inserver-poll.cpp -- This test illustrates how to + write single-threaded concurrent servers using UNIX SVR4 + poll(). You can run this test using the CPP-inclient.cpp + program as the oneway client. + + . CPP-{unclient,unserver}.cpp -- This test is basically + a C++ wrapper version of the preceeding "C++" test using + UNIX domain sockets. Note that this test only works + between a client and server process on the same machine. + + . FD-{unclient,inclient}.cpp -- This test illustrates + how to pass file descriptors between a client and a + concurrent server process on the same machine using the ACE + C++ wrappers for UNIX domain sockets. + +For examples of the ACE SOCK_{Dgram,CODgram} and +SOCK_Dgram_{Mcast,Bcast} wrappers, please take a look in the +./examples/Reactor/{Dgram,Multicast,Ntalker} directories. + |
