Class TCPIPLinkServer

java.lang.Object
  org.jcsp.net2.LinkServer
      org.jcsp.net2.tcpip.TCPIPLinkServer

All Implemented Interfaces:

CSProcess

public final class TCPIPLinkServer
extends LinkServer

Concrete implementation of a LinkServer that listens on a TCP/IP based ServerSocket. For information on LinkServer, see the relevant documentation.

It is possible for an advanced user to create this object themselves, although it is not recommended. For example:

TCPIPLinkServer serv = new TCPIPLinkServer(address);
new ProcessManager(serv).start();

This is done automatically during Node initialisation. However, if the machine used has multiple interfaces, this can be used to listen on another interface also.
