Provides an example Server / Client written in MATLAB that utilises the ability to call Java to perform message communication using TCP/IP.

Similar to my previous example (http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/21131) but allows for much more efficient data transmission by using a helper Java class to minimise function call overhead.

To use the example:

- Start 2 instances of MATLAB
- in the first execute the following:
message = char(mod(1:1000, 255)+1);
server(message, 3000, 10)
- in the second execute the following:
javaaddpath('<path to where the .class file is located>');
data = client('localhost', 3000)
