About client-server communication

The following "object pairs" represent the potential connections you can establish between client-side and server-side objects. For example, when a client-side NetConnection object connects to the server, a server-side Client object is created; this Client object can then call methods of its NetConnection object counterpart.

The following table shows the client-side and server-side objects that are associated with each other.

Client-side object	Corresponding server-side object
`my_nc` (NetConnection object)	`my_client` (Client object or `application.clients` object)
`my_ns` (NetStream object)	`my_server_stream` (Stream object)
`my_so` (remote shared object)	`my_server_so` (server-side shared object)

In the following table, the client-side calls on the left invoke the server-side calls on the right.

Client-side call	Server-side call
`my_nc.connect`	`application.onConnect`
`my_nc.close`	`application.onDisconnect`
`my_nc.call("doThing", myCallbackFcn, 1, "foo")`	`my_client.doThing(1, "foo")`
`my_so.send("doThing", 1, "foo")`	`my_server_so.doThing(1, "foo")`

In the following table, the server-side calls on the left invoke the client-side calls on the right.

Server-side call	Client-side call
`my_client.call ("doThing", myCallbackFcn, 1, "foo")`	`my_nc.doThing (1, "foo")`
`my_server_stream.send ("doThing", 1, "foo")`	`my_ns.doThing (1, "foo")`
`my_server_so.send("doThing", 1, "foo")`	`my_so.doThing(1, "foo")`
