Writing data to a network address

in General Discussion • Other • 4 months ago

Hello,

Is there a way to write data to a network address with processing that other computers on the same network can see this data just by viewing that network address or port (etc) on internet explorer or google chrome (etc)???

Thanks

Have you looked at the Network library shipped with Processing? There are other 3rd party libraries as well.

Well yes... the network library requires a server and client program to be on both sides. corrent me if I am wrong...
I want to just send some data over a local network once a second. I dont need a client program.
I just need to view this data on a ip address or port or something... thats all

Thanks

I am not a specialist of this topic, but this looks like you want to broadcast an IP message.
But from your description, you don't seem very sure how networks work. Can I suggest to read up a bit on the topic?
Later, you can search the Internet for "java socket broadcast message" or similar request.
