🚚 Dispatch Management System (Java Client-Server)

This repository contains a university project developed in Serbian language for academic purposes as part of the Software Design course.

The system represents a Java client-server desktop application used for tracking dispatch operations and managing transport orders.

---

📌 Project Overview

The application simulates a real-world dispatching system where users (dispatchers) can:

• Log into the system
• Manage business partners
• Create and update transport orders
• Search and filter orders
• Add additional details (e.g. qualifications)
• Communicate with a centralized server

The system follows a client-server architecture using sockets and a layered design.

🏗️ Project Structure

The project consists of three main modules:

🔹 Dispecer_Server

• Handles all client requests
• Contains business logic
• Communicates with MySQL database
• Manages system operations

🔹 Dispecer_Klijent

• Java Swing desktop application
• GUI for dispatcher interaction
• Sends requests and receives responses

🔹 Dispecer_Zajednicki

• Shared module between client and server
• Contains:
  • Domain classes
  • Request/Response communication classes
  • Common logic

---

⚙️ Technologies Used

• Java (JDK 24)
• Java Swing
• Socket Programming
• MySQL
• JDBC

---

🗄️ Database Setup

1. Open MySQL (Workbench / XAMPP / phpMyAdmin)

2. Import SQL script: db/seminarskiBaza.sql

3. This will create the database and all required tables.

🚀 How to Run the Project

⚠️ IMPORTANT: Follow this order!

1. Configure Database

Open: Dispecer_Server/config/config.properties

Set your credentials: url=jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/seminarski username=root password=your_password

---

2. Start Server

Run: Dispecer_Server (main class)

Server will start on port: 9000

---

3. Start Client

Run: Dispecer_Klijent (main class)

• Login screen will appear
• Client connects to server automatically

---

4. Use Application

After login you can:

• Manage partners
• Create transport orders
• Search and update orders
• Perform dispatcher operations

---

🔌 Communication

• Client sends Request object
• Server processes it
• Server returns Response object
• Communication is done via Java sockets

---

⚠️ Notes

• Project is written in Serbian language
• Some paths in code may be hardcoded (Windows)
• Default server port: 9000
• MySQL driver is included in project

---

🧪 Run via JAR (optional)

If you use compiled version: java -jar Dispecer_Server.jar java -jar Dispecer_Klijent.jar

---

🎓 Academic Context
