Is there a way in which the http connection and tcp connection listeners can interact with each other?
I have two separate application modules one is working through http and other requires tcp .
I need to do an interaction between these two modules so is there way i can make my http based module interact with tcp based module.
Two distinct processes won’t be able to use the same IP port on a same IP address. Thus, two processes won’t be able to use the same incoming stream of data coming out of the TCP connection. If they use different ports, there’s no problem.
If the two processes use the same IP port, as HTTP is a protocol that sits on top of TCP, it means that your TCP process can be used as a pipe by the HTTP process. The TCP process will connect to the IP port, do its stuff, and forward the data to the HTTP process that will handle it.
