Port to Service Name in Java?

Question

My services file (C:\\WINDOWS\\system32\\drivers\\etc\\services) has a bunch of Port to Service mappings:

echo                7/tcp
echo                7/udp         


        

Answer 1

I don't think there is some API in java for this purpose. You will either need to parse this file or maintain port service mapping in some form (Properties file,db etc.). example to parse from system file is :
