Question

I have a socket based server which accepts client connections. The problem is server is able to accept only one client connection. I want it to accept multiple clients.

server code:

        class Conn extends Thread{
        ServerSocket ss;
        Socket s;
        public void run()
        {
            status.setText(status.getText()+"connecting");
            try{
            while(true)
            {
            ss=new ServerSocket(3000);
            s=ss.accept();
            Read r=new Read(s);
            r.start();
            }
            }catch(Exception e){}
        }            
    }

Answer 1

In the Conn class, put something like:

try {
    ss = new ServerSocket(3000);
    while(true) {
        s = ss.accept();
        Read r = new Read(s);
        r.start();
    }
} catch (Exception e) {}

Open the server socket, and in a loop, accept all incoming connections and process them starting a new thread.
