3. What is difference between Swing and JSF?

The key difference is that JSF runs on the server in a standard Java servlet container like Tomcat or WebLogic and display HTML or some other markup to the client.

4. What is JSF?

JSF stands for JavaServer Faces, or simply Faces. It is a framework for building Web-based user interfaces in Java. Like Swing, it provides a set of standard widgets such as buttons, hyperlinks, checkboxes, ans so on.

5. What is the difference between URL instance and URLConnection instance?

A URL instance represents the location of a resource, and a URLConnection instance represents a link for accessing or communicating with the resource at the location.

6. How do I make a connection to URL?

You obtain a URL instance and then invoke openConnection on it. URLConnection is an abstract class, which means you can't directly create instances of it using a constructor. We have to invoke openConnection method on a URL instance, to get the right kind of connection for your URL. Eg. URL url;

URLConnection connection; try{ url = new URL("..."); connection = url.openConnection(); }catch (MalFormedURLException e) { }

7. What is a Socket?

A socket is one end-point of a two-way communication link between two programs running on the network. A socket is bound to a port number so that the TCP layer can identify the application that data is destined to be sent. Socket classes are used to represent the connection between a client program and a server program. The java.net package provides two classes--Socket and ServerSocket--which implement the client side of the connection and the server side of the connection, respectively.

8. What information is needed to create a TCP Socket?

The Local System's IP Address and Port Number. And the Remote System's IPAddress and Port Number.
