So im making a client-server based architecture programm where server is sending a file and client receives it. I have seen a lot of code parts and i also made a lot where i send small files. ex images. In my case i want to send .wav audio files which are large(40mb). This is what i have done so far. When i run my client, it just proceed to download, but never really downloads the file. I guess its because its too large.
How to send such large files?
server
public void send_file_to_client(String requested_file) throws IOException {
FileInputStream fis = null;
BufferedInputStream bis = null;
File FILE_TO_SEND = new File("C:\\ServerMusicStorage\\" + requested_file + ".wav");
byte[] mybytearray = new byte[(int) FILE_TO_SEND.length()];
try {
fis = new FileInputStream(FILE_TO_SEND);
bis = new BufferedInputStream(fis);
} catch (FileNotFoundException ex) {
Logger.getLogger(ClientHandler.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
}
OutputStream os = null;
bis.read(mybytearray, 0, mybytearray.length);
os = connsock.getOutputStream();
System.out.println("Sending " + FILE_TO_SEND + "(" + mybytearray.length + " bytes)");
toClient.writeUTF(Integer.toString(mybytearray.length));
os.write(mybytearray, 0, mybytearray.length);
os.flush();
System.out.println("Done.");
if (bis != null) {
bis.close();
}
if (os != null) {
os.close();
}
if (connsock != null) {
connsock.close();
}
}
client
public static void receive_file(String requested_file) throws IOException {
File file_to_save = new File("C:\\ClientMusicStorage\\" + requested_file + ".wav");
int bytesRead;
int current = 0;
FileOutputStream fos = null;
BufferedOutputStream bos = null;
//get file size to create the bytearray
String fileSize=fromServer.readUTF();
int final_file_size = Integer.parseInt(fileSize);
byte[] mybytearray = new byte[final_file_size];
InputStream is = clientSocket.getInputStream();
fos = new FileOutputStream(file_to_save);
bos = new BufferedOutputStream(fos);
bytesRead = is.read(mybytearray, 0, mybytearray.length);
current = bytesRead;
do {
bytesRead
= is.read(mybytearray, current, (mybytearray.length - current));
if (bytesRead >= 0) {
current += bytesRead;
}
} while (bytesRead > -1);
bos.write(mybytearray, 0, current);
bos.flush();
}
