JXTA NetworkConfigurator eases platform configuration
Good news for JXTA developers: a pending addition to the platform API, NetworkConfigurator.java, will allow you to quickly and easily configure the platform for simple (read most) peer configurations. Developers can still use JXTA’s extension:config for more complex peer configurations, but NetworkConfigurator can serve simple configuration needs nicely.
At its inception in 2001, JXTA configuration consisted of an AWT interactive configuration suite. Late 2004 saw refinements in the AWT UI, as well as the introduction of the much needed extension:config. NetworkConfigurator takes the configuration process one step further and allows simple programmatic platform configuration.
See NetworkConfigurator.main() for typical usage.
