Trying to use the phex API

goober · #1 (**permalink**) November 28th, 2007

Hey,
I'm working on a research paper on the gnutella p2p network. I have been trying to do some basic things like connect to the network using various java APIs. I started out with Jtella but obviously thats pretty outdated with the current protocol. Phex seems to be the best bet, its seems well written and organized. But I have been having some problems...

I have been trying to connect using NetworkManager like so

Code:

NetworkManager networkMgr = NetworkManager.getInstance();
networkMgr.connectToNetwork();

I get

I have also tried

Code:

NetworkManager networkMgr = NetworkManager.getInstance();
networkMgr.joinNetwork();

I get

Is there something I need to do or initialize before trying to connect? Am i way off and this is not even how phex connects to gnutella? I really need some help, I really need to get started on this paper.

Thanks in advance.

Please use the latest SVN version and check out the Servent class and the Main class for initialization of Phex.
This should make the live easier for you.

If you like to get more into details you can also visit the IRC channel #phex on freenode.net
You can find me there once in a while....

Do you already use the Phex API docs?
