Anytime Arul! Thanks for watching! 😃

Hey @arulkumara2077, thank you for your appreciation! I'm really glad to hear that you found the video useful. If you have any more questions about Java file transferring or anything else related to programming, feel free to drop a comment. See you in the next one! Happy coding!

Hey there! Yes you can! Instead of doing the JOptionPane just have create a File object from the file you want to send and send that over!

Absolutely, @ashul2551! You could certainly modify the code to always send a specific file each time the program is run.

Instead of using the JFileChooser to select the file, you could initially declare your file statically by directing it straight to its absolute path.

An example is:

```java
File[] fileToSend = {new File("C:\\path\\to\\your\\file.txt")};
```

As you recall, we used `File[]` in the original example to handle the final declaration issue. The rest of the code should work perfectly as before. Be sure to replace "C:\\path\\to\\your\\file.txt" with the actual path to your file, and you're good to go!

Remember troubleshooting errors and making tweaks is the lifeline of any developer. Keep coding and happy learning!

Thanks Khandaker! There are certainly more of these videos to come! 😀

Thank you for the positive feedback, @respawnlel. Glad you found the content helpful! There's definitely more to come. Stay tuned for more Java-related content and don't hesitate if you have any specific topic requests! See you in the next video.

That's always great to hear! Thanks for watching 🤠

Thanks a lot, @prometheusli101! Stay tuned for more informative and helpful tutorials. Remember, practice is key when it comes to programming, so don't forget to try these examples on your own. Happy to help you in your coding journey. See you in the next video!

Thanks Mohit! I will definitely be making more Java videos! 😃

Thank you so much for the kind words @mohitpandey148, glad to hear that my videos are helping you enhance your skills as a developer! Stay tuned for more detailed and engaging Java videos on my channel. Don't forget to keep coding, and as always, keep your suggestions coming. Happy learning!

Hey Piyush! They do not need to be on the same network but you need the right connection information. You just have to pass this into the Socket constructor. 😃

Absolutely, @piyushkesharwani1987! We need to connect the devices to the same network in order for the server and client to communicate and for the files to be sent and received successfully. Java Sockets technology is based on the idea of two devices on the same network communicating with each other. So, if they are not on the same network, they won't be able to establish this connection. But remember, this is for local server-client communication. For larger networks or the internet, you'd require more advanced networking concepts. Thanks for your question and keep coding!

Hey Arun! I would use the Java date class and after a file is sent just have a method that records the time and then saves it somewhere.

Hi @ArunKumar-gp2vq, great question! If you want to record when a file was sent, Java provides us with the java.util.Date library, which can help us procure the date and time when a file is shared. We would need to create the Date object at the moment the file is shared to capture this information.

To maintain this, you could append this information to the `MyFile` object, as a separate attribute. For instance, you might add a `Date sharedAt` attribute to the `MyFile` class. Be sure to update the constructor, and the getter and setter methods to reflect this change.

Then, each time a file is sent, you could create a new `Date` object, which will be automatically set to the current date and time, and attach it to the `MyFile` object being sent.

As for "etc.", it really depends on what other information you want to track. Java's extensive library has several ways to track a multitude of properties about files and the process of sending them, so if you have a specific attribute in mind, don't hesitate to mention it! Hope this helps!

Hey Kristan! That's an interesting question! I believe you could by running them with separate threads? So implement the runnable interface to the server class and set it up and run it in the overriden run() method. And then run the client as is. Or vice versa. There might be other ways but I'm not entirely sure. Hope this helps!

Hey there @kristanbottjer8001, great question! Yes, you can definitely put the client and server in the same project but in different packages. The communication between the client and server side will still work the same way as long as you make sure they are running separately, each on its own thread. Just be sure to manage the packages carefully to avoid any possible conflicts. Happy coding!

Hey there! You can send as many files as you want! No changes needed 🤠

Hey @l4vos99, great question! To send multiple files, you'd need to implement a loop where you can select multiple files instead of just one. You'd need the client to keep sending files until it's done. Keep in mind, your server would also need to be able to handle this - it should keep accepting incoming files until the client is done sending. Of course, you'd need to decide on a way for the client to signal the server that it's done sending files. One typical approach is to have the client send a special "end" message. I hope this helps, and happy coding!

Anytime man! Thanks so much for watching! 😀
