How do I fixed skipped input/output lines in Java Echo Server?

Time:11-14

New to network computing, so forgive my ignorance:

All of my commands work except for the /caesarcipher - when I enter it, I don't receive an echo until the next message on the client side, and the server doesn't begin to perform the function until 2 subsequent messages have been sent.

Any help would be appreciated!

CodePudding user response:

To be frankly, there are too much to read through, it would be better if you described some part of your codes more specifically, and there would be more people be willing to help you. Nonetheless, here are some suggestions for your codes, hope this helps.


For your 1st question "...I don't receive an echo until the next message on the client side..." :

Changes in EchoClient :

    // ...

    CaesarCipher caesarCipher = new CaesarCipher();
    String serverKeyMessage = message;

    /* --- Delete 1 line : */
    // int serverKey = Integer.parseInt(serverKeyMessage.replaceAll("[^0-9]", ""));

    /*     Add 5 lines : */
    int serverKey;
    java.util.regex.Matcher m = Pattern.compile(".*([0-9] ).*").matcher(serverKeyMessage);
    if (m.matches()) serverKey = Integer.parseInt(m.group(1));
    else serverKey = 0;
    System.out.println(serverKeyMessage);

    // ...

For your 2nd question "...doesn't begin to perform the function until 2 subsequent..." :

Changes in EchoServer :

    // ...

    CaesarCipher caesarCipher = new CaesarCipher();
    //  currentMessage = input.readLine();   // delete this line
    currentMessage = inputLine;   // add this line
    String decryptedMessage = caesarCipher.decrypt(currentMessage, randomKey);
    
    // ...
