Is there any way where I can modify the original server code so that it accepts any port number instead of the predefined one (i.e., port number 8989)? The Port number will be entered in the command line when testing the Server1.exe as follows: start server 8989 (also the main function parameters holds the port the command line arguments) I tried doing it like as shown below, but when I went to my command prompt to run my server, it gave me:
