Special Note

Although this assignment’s autograder tests the most common input issues and produces an initial score, this score is going to be overwritten by a manual review by the course staff. This manual review will ensure your code works not only based on the simple cases listed in the resulting tests, but also for other considerations listed in the RFC and for additional tests. TAs will also review your code quality in terms of clarity and use of comments.

Assignment Overview

In this assignment you will use the Java socket related classes to create a dictionary client. To get familiar with the socket library in Java, you are strongly encouraged to complete the Java tutorial lesson on Sockets. The EchoClient.java file, listed in the tutorial, may be particularly helpful as a starting point for your implementation.

Your program is to provide some basic dictionary functionality through a simple graphical interface. You will implement a subset of the client side of the DICT protocol, described in RFC 2229, which can be found here: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2229.

To start your assignment, download the file Dictionary.zip. This file contains a directory called Dictionary which can be imported into IDEs like IntelliJ or Eclipse to develop your code.

The file above contains a skeleton code that provides a user-interface for the functionality you are to implement. The interface, however, does not actually establish any connection or transfer any data. Your job is to implement the connection establishment and data transfer for this application. More specifically, you will need to implement the code that performs each of the following tasks:

• Establish a connection with a DICT server, and receive the initial welcome message.
• Finish a connection with a DICT server by sending a final QUIT message, receiving its reply, and closing the socket connection.
• Requesting, receiving, parsing and returning a list of databases used in the server. Each database corresponds to one dictionary that can be used to retrieve definitions from. Examples include one or more regular English dictionaries, a Thesaurus, an English-French dictionary, a dictionary of technical terms, a dictionary of acronyms, etc. In the interface, the user will have the option of selecting a specific database, or all databases.
• Requesting, receiving, parsing and returning a list of matching strategies supported by the server. The protocol allows a client to retrieve a list of matches (suggestions) based on a keyword, and the strategy is used to indicate how these keywords are used to present actual dictionary entries. Examples include prefix matches (all words that start with a prefix), regular expressions, entries with similar sounding words, etc. In the interface, the user will have the option of selecting a specific strategy for matching, with prefix match being the default.
• Requesting, receiving, parsing and returning a list of matches based on a keyword, a matching strategy and a database. This list of matches will be used in the interface to suggest entries as they type a word.
• Requesting, receiving, parsing and returning a list of definitions for a word, based on a database. Each definition will correspond to the word, a database, and the definition itself, which may contain several lines. All definitions are listed in the interface in the order in which they are received.
