Run Application

The Swing application contains a AMF client and server that starts on http://localhost:8000 when you run the gui.py file:

jython gui.py

Use the Start Server button to launch the server and make AMF client calls using the Invoke Method button.

Client

The Python AMF client can be started by running the following from the jython folder:

jython client.py

You should see something like this for the client:

Hello World!

Options

When you run jython client.py –help it will display the various options available for this example client:

Usage: client.py [options]

Options:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -p PORT, --port=PORT  port number [default: 8000]
  --host=HOST           host address [default: localhost]
