SMS Gateway - Java SMS API, Java SMS SDK

The Ozeki JAVA SMS SDK is your best choice if you want to send and receive SMS text messages to cellphones from a JAVA application. It was designed to be used in JAVA applications that have a GUI or that operate as a background service. It is a good choice if you want to send SMS messages, you need to react to incoming SMS messages or you would like to process SMS delivery reports instantly and in a resource efficient way. In case you need to add SMS functionality to a Java webservice, or to a JAVA solution where the JAVA process is executed for a very short time, this SDK is not your ideal choice. It is very efficient for long-term operations, but for short-lived processes other solutions might offer a better solution. For short-lived processes, we recommend you to use the JAVA HTTP SMS example or the JAVA SQL SMS example.

Introduction

Ozeki has released the Java SMS SDK, because it has experienced continuous demand from JAVA developers for a tool, that is able to add SMS functionality to JAVA applications in a very efficient way. This SDK communicates with the Ozeki NG SMS Gateway, through a TCP/IP socket. The socket is always connected, which makes it possible, to receive SMS delivery reports and incoming SMS messages instantly. The Ozeki Java SMS SDK implements the TCP/IP communication and provides methods calls and events you can implement to achieve the desired functionality. Using this SDK very fast and efficient SMS solutions can be developed. The SDK includes full source code. You are free to use and modify this code in your application.

To be able to use this SDK, you need to install Ozeki NG SMS Gateway into your corporate network. Ozeki NG SMS Gateway will be responsible for attaching your system to the mobile network. It will receive the TCP/IP connections from the JAVA SMS SDK and it well send and receive SMS messages through the configured communication method (Figure 1). For example you can send/receive SMS messages through a GSM phone attached to your computer with a phone to PC data cable, or you can send/receive SMS messages through the Internet if you have subscribed for an internet SMS Service.

Prerequisites

How to use the SDK

To use the SDK, you need to have the Java SE Development Kit installed on your computer. The SDK was developed and tested in Eclipse, but it should operate without a problem on any other JAVA development platform. The Ozeki java SMS SDK can be downloaded from the top of this page. It is a zip, file, that needs to be extracted into your project directory. Once extracted, run Eclipse IDE and add a new project.

The Ozeki SMS SDK contains a jar file called ozekismsclient.jar. You need to add it to the project by clicking on Project/Build Path/Add External Archives.

The next step to use it is to create a class which derives from the "OzSMSClient" ("MyOsSMSClient" in the following example).

Example source code

//MyOzSmsClient.java

package hu.ozekisms;

import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
import hu.ozeki.*;

public class MyOzSmsClient extends OzSmsClient{

        public MyOzSmsClient(String host, int port) throws IOException, InterruptedException {
                super(host, port);
                // TODO Auto-generated constructor stub
        }


        @Override
        public void doOnMessageAcceptedForDelivery(OzSMSMessage sms) {
                Date now = new Date();
                System.out.println(now.toString() + " Message accepted for delivery. ID: " +
                sms.messageId);
        }

        @Override
        public void doOnMessageDeliveredToHandset(OzSMSMessage sms) {
                Date now = new Date();
                System.out.println(now.toString() + " Message delivered to handset. ID: " +
                sms.messageId);
        }

        @Override
        public void doOnMessageDeliveredToNetwork(OzSMSMessage sms) {
                Date now = new Date();
                System.out.println(now.toString() + " Message delivered to network. ID: " +
                sms.messageId);
        }

        @Override
        public void doOnMessageDeliveryError(OzSMSMessage sms) {
                Date now = new Date();
                System.out.println(now.toString() + " Message could not be delivered. ID: " +
                sms.messageId + " Error message: " + sms.errorMessage + "\r\n");
        }

        @Override
        public void doOnMessageReceived(OzSMSMessage sms) {
                Date now = new Date();
                System.out.println(now.toString() + " Message received. Sender address: " +
                sms.sender + " Message text: " + sms.messageData);
        }


        @Override
        public void doOnClientConnectionError(String errorCode, String errorMessage) {
                Date now = new Date();
                System.out.println(now.toString() + " Message code: " + errorCode +
                ", Message: " + errorMessage);
        }



}




//TestTcpSms.java

package hu.ozekisms;

import java.io.*;


public class TestTcpSms {

        /**
         * @param args
         */
        public static void main(String[] args) {
                try {
                        String host = "localhost";
                        int port = 9500;
                        String username = "admin";
                        String password = "abc123";

                        MyOzSmsClient osc = new MyOzSmsClient(host, port);
                        osc.login(username, password);

                        
                        String line = "Hello World";

                        System.out.println("SMS message:");

                        if(osc.isLoggedIn()) {
                                osc.sendMessage("+551122334455", line);
                                osc.logout();
                        }


                } catch (IOException e) {
                        System.out.println(e.toString());
                        e.printStackTrace();
                } catch (InterruptedException e) {
                        System.out.println(e.toString());
                        e.printStackTrace();
                }
        }
}
