Suppose I have a standalone java application. Now I want to enable multiple clients to access it via network or web (HTTP or web services). What is the best approach to convert a standalone app to an app that can be remotely accessed? Are there any simple frameworks that you recommend? Any best practise?
The java tutorial on sockets, All about sockets, might help. This is if you want your java application to be a server of some sort. The tutorial shows you how to connect to your java application using a ServerSocket (in the tutorial they write a client that connects to the server as well). When you have a basic understanding of sockets it’s a small step to, for example, start handling HTTP requests (tutorials on this are easily found on the web as well).
