This project is part of the GoMint.io project and aims to be a reliable port of the original RakNet networking library written in C++ for Java. It is developed specifically to meet the requirements of the GoMint server implementation but might be used in other projects, too, if slightly adapted.

jRakNet supports both server-side and client-side connections through two different types of sockets.

Creating a client socket:

ClientSocket client = new ClientSocket();
client.setEventHandler( handler );
try {
    client.initialize()
} catch ( SocketException e ) {
    logger.error( "Failed to initialize client socket", e );
}
client.connect( "127.0.0.1", 19112 );

Creating a server socket:

ServerSocket server = new ServerSocket( 10 );
server.setEventHandler( handler );
try {
    server.bind( "0.0.0.0", 19112 );
} catch ( SocketException e ) {
    logger.error( "Failed to bind server socket", e );
}
