Question

I just got an assignment.It is to design a java socket server which accepts incoming client connections.The server’s job is to accept it and keep track of all the connected clients and it has to advertise the connected client list to all the clients that connect.I am a newbie to Java.I just know that this task has to be completed with the help of threads.I have some knowledge in Java I/O,Networking and Threads.But I am unable to collaborate all these concepts in one single application.It would be helpful if someone would give a model program,or perhaps how to proceed,then it would be helpful.

Thanks,
Madhu

Answer 1

This tutorial should show you the basics on concurrent servers. This is another tutorial you might want to look at as well. The second deals more with threading and concurrency.
