Question

Write a program to implement
a Distributed chat server using
TCP sockets in ‘C’.

Run the program and screen shot the Output Please.

Answer 1

//TCP Client

#include<sys/socket.h>
#include<stdio.h>
#include<string.h>
#include<netdb.h>
#include<stdlib.h>
int main()
{
char buf[100];
int k;
int sock_desc;
struct sockaddr_in client;
memset(&client,0,sizeof(client));
sock_desc=socket(AF_INET,SOCK_STREAM,0);
if(sock_desc==-1)
{
printf(“Error in socket creation”);
exit(1);
}
client.sin_family=AF_INET;
client.sin_addr.s_addr=INADDR_ANY;
client.sin_port=3002;
k=connect(sock_desc,(struct sockaddr*)&client,sizeof(client));
if(k==-1)
{
printf(“Error in connecting to server”);
exit(1);
}
while(1)
{
printf(“\nEnter data to be send to server: “);
fgets(buf,100,stdin);
if(strncmp(buf,”end”,3)==0)//Use “end” to end communication with server
break;
k=send(sock_desc,buf,100,0);
if(k==-1)
{

exit(1);
}
k=recv(sock_desc,buf,100,0);
if(k==-1)
{
printf(“Error in receiving”);
exit(1);
}
printf(“Message got from server is : %s”,buf);
}
close(sock_desc);
exit(0);
return 0;
}

server
