bugs in client\server program - can't connect to remote server

S

Sid

hello!

I have a client/server program in which client lets user input two
numbers and the server adds the numbers and returns the sum to client.

the problems I am having are:

1. client is not able to connect to remote server. it is only
connecting to local host.

2. if a string seperated by "non-numeric" characters (e.g. 34a2dd) is
sent, both client and server throw an uncaught exception. i need to
fix the client or server or both and give useful feedback to the user.
i need to do the error checking of user i/p so that user enters only
integers seperated by whitespace.

I am attaching my code.
I am new to java and probably don't know much.
'shall greatly appreciate your help.

thanks in advance,
siddharth

// usage: java TCPAdditionServer3 <port number>
// default port is 7777

try {
portNumber = Integer.parseInt(args[0]);

System.out.println(" port = 7777 (default)");
portNumber = 7777;

// create welcoming socket at port number specified by user or
7777 if no choice is specified by user
