File and Message transfer over sockets!
I am developing a chat application in JAVA and need to transfer the files from one user to another.I have successfully sent the messages from one user to another via the sockets.Now I want to transfer the file also using the same sockets.The problem is how the user side distinguishes whether s/he has received the message or the file.
Is there any other effective technique to do the same thing?
Also how can I use the drag and drop over the Swing GUI so that the user can simply drag the file to be sent over the socket on the GUI and then send the file
