Good intro to TCP socket programming in Java? -

I am looking for a good tutorial on TCP socket programming in Java.

It is good to emphasize, often I feel that when I look at this kind of guide, then I know that the person who wrote the guide does not know what they are about Whether they are talking or they can not express what they know.

There are 12 pages of "What are sockets" and here's a page some code that uses sockets is.

Alternatively, if someone wants to write a code snippet to send text to a TCP socket and wait for the messages on a port whatever works.

Does it help? . This is the sun's own socket tutorial in it's part of "what sockets", a "reading / reading from sockets" section and finally a "read / write pair" simple example as you were asking.

Waffle: The code ratio seems very good.
