getCreateDirectories()

Gets the create non-existent directories property

getInboundDirectory()

getMaxRetries()

Returns the current maximum retry count for future read and write requests

getOutboundDirectory()

getOverwrite()

Gets the overwrite property value

getTimeout()

Returns the current timeout parameter (in milliseconds)

getTraceLevel()

Returns the trace level

log(String)

Writes a message to the log, and to System.out

main(String[])

Runs an instance of the server

run()

The main loop for the server Normally, you would create a thread to run an instance of the TftpServer.

Sets the property that allows non-existent directories to be created

setInboundDirectory(File)

Sets the directory for inbound files (files written by clients)

setLog(PrintWriter)

Sets a file for writing log records.

setMaxRetries(int)

Sets the maximum retry count for future read and write requests

setOutboundDirectory(File)

Sets the directory for outbound files (files to be read by clients)

setOverwrite(boolean)

Sets the overwrite property True implies that existing files can be overwritten

setTimeout(int)

Sets the timeout parameter (in milliseconds) for future requests

setTraceLevel(int)

Sets the trace level

 public TftpServer() throws SocketException, UnknownHostException

Create a server on the local host address

 public TftpServer(InetAddress laddr) throws SocketException

Creates a server on a given IP address

Parameters:

laddr - an IP address local to this machine to which the server will bind.

 public void setInboundDirectory(File inDir)

Sets the directory for inbound files (files written by clients)

Parameters:

inDir - the File specifying a directory. If null, then clients are prevented from writing any files to the server

 public File getInboundDirectory()

 public void setOutboundDirectory(File outDir)

Sets the directory for outbound files (files to be read by clients)

Parameters:

outDir - the File specifying a directory. If null, then clients are prevented from reading any files from the server.

 public File getOutboundDirectory()

 public static void setLog(PrintWriter logWriter)

Sets a file for writing log records. If a log is already in operation, it will be closed.

Parameters:

logWriter - the PrintWriter for the log. If null, log records will be sent only to System.out

 public static void log(String msg)

Writes a message to the log, and to System.out

Parameters:

msg - the message to be logged

 public void destroy()

Terminate the server at the next convenient stopping place Sets a flag that the server will test, causing it to finish its work and return from the run() method.

 public void setMaxRetries(int maxRetries)

Sets the maximum retry count for future read and write requests

 public int getMaxRetries()

Returns the current maximum retry count for future read and write requests

 public void setTimeout(int timeout)

Sets the timeout parameter (in milliseconds) for future requests

 public int getTimeout()

Returns the current timeout parameter (in milliseconds)

 public void setTraceLevel(int level)

Sets the trace level

 public int getTraceLevel()

Returns the trace level

 public void setOverwrite(boolean canOverwriteExistingFiles)

Sets the overwrite property True implies that existing files can be overwritten

 public boolean getOverwrite()

Gets the overwrite property value

 public void setCreateDirectories(boolean createAllowed)

Sets the property that allows non-existent directories to be created

 public boolean getCreateDirectories()

Gets the create non-existent directories property

 public void run()

The main loop for the server Normally, you would create a thread to run an instance of the TftpServer. The Thread.start() method then invokes this method. You can also call this method directly. The server runs continuously until the destroy method is called.
