    <p>I'm new to understanding how interprocess communication works. I"m working with two applications on my localmachine, a Source Application and a Server Application. The Source application broadcasts files through a configured port on my pc. The Server application listens for those files and exposes them to the internet for users to stream. </p> <p>I want to remove the Server application from the equation and write a new application to communicate with the Source application. </p> <p>So far I have my application connected to the port and listening. I am able to receive a message from the port. The message i am receiving appears to be metadata, no file. My assumption is the Server Application sends a response once it has picked up this metadata information to obtain the file. Therefore my application needs to mimic the server application. However I have no idea how to respond to the source application's port.</p> <p>1) Is there a tool I can use to monitor the communication between the Source application and the server application? I believe this would be a tool to watch for tcp messages? All the tools I come across appear to only look for http messages. Would a packet analyzer be of any use?</p> <p>2) If I can't view the communication between the source and the server application, what else can I do? Is there a tool I can use to broadcast the meta information I"m receiving on a port, then point the server application to that port and receive a response?</p> <p>Any resources to help me better understand this intercomunication process would be greatly appreciated.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
