1  Game Development / Networking & Multiplayer / Re: Problem: server recognizing only one client on: 2006-05-04 17:05:46
Wow I cant believe I didnt think about creating a thread for the protocol before creating a thread for the client. Thanks, one quick question though: I looked at java.sun.com and looked at some NIO tutorials and can I still implement a protocol with the Selector thing? Its kinda of confusing and Im not yet sure how to use it.
2  Game Development / Networking & Multiplayer / Problem: server recognizing only one client on: 2006-04-17 18:25:35
I just started programming in java about 2 months ago and only know the old school methods of getting things done. I am making a chat client, server. The client and server work fine but whenever a client connects to the server the server creates a thread and that thread makes a new protocol. I need some way for the server to remmeber all the clients so it can relay the messages to them.
The main server object

import java.net.*;
import java.io.*;

public class ChatServer2
// Listens for a client, creates a thread for them, then continues to listen.
{
  public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException
  {
    boolean listening = true;
    ServerSocket serverSocket = null;

    try
    {
      serverSocket = new ServerSocket(1337);
    }
    catch (IOException e)
    {
      System.err.println("Could not listen on port: 1337.");
      System.exit(-1);
    }
   
    System.out.print("Server ready.\n");
   
    while (listening)
    {
      new ChatThread(serverSocket.accept()).start();   
    }
    serverSocket.close();
  }
}

import java.net.*;
import java.io.*;

public class ChatThread extends Thread
// Made just for the client.
{
  private Socket ChatSocket = null;
  int place = 0;
  ChatProtocol cp = new ChatProtocol();
 
  public ChatThread(Socket ChatSocket)
  {
    super("ChatThread");
    this.ChatSocket = ChatSocket;
  }

theres more to the thread but i just included the important code.
 what i want is for the server to recognize all the clients instead of just 1. Thank you.
