Abstract
In the previous two chapters, you explored the POSIX Socket API as it pertains to communication with remote parties. The POSIX Socket API can also be used to establish a communication channel locally on the device between two applications, or between the native and Java layers. In this chapter, you will continue to build on top of the Echo example application. The local socket communication example will demonstrate the following:
-
Local socket server implementation in the native layer.
-
Local client implementation in the Java layer.
-
Establishing a local socket communication between two applications.
