Hi all,
I have a query about configuring the port that the server is running on.
When you submit your assignment, each part (client and server) must be executable using a command of this exact form:
java -jar <path_and_filename> [<mode>]
Your programs must not require use of command line arguments other than the single mode flag, which must be supported. Your programs must not require use of command line property specifications. All configuration must be done via a GUI, and must be persistent between runs of the program. Such configuration information must be stored in a file called suncertify.properties which must be located in the current working directory.
Does this mean that I have to write a gui to configure which port the server should start on? or can I just state in the userguide.txt that a port must be free?
Thanks
Chris.
