Scope: public
Return: void

  • @param String file - the path to the file on the server that is to be sent
  • @param Socket servSock - the Socket object with the active Server connection

When the server receives the command "FILE" from the client, this method is called from the switch-statement under the respective case. It sends the file line-by-line over the connection to the client side, and the lines are processed into a new file using the client's fileCommand method. getFile also generates and sends a checksum for the file.
