Basically I want to make something similar to a messenger, or rather to IRC.<br />
<br />
Server wait for clients to connect, if a client connects, a thread its created for him. I plan to make a swing graphical interface for Client, with a text box for user to write his message and a send button to send it to server. Also i guess that Client needs a thread that keeps listening for messages from server and update a TextArea when a massage its received. If user inputs, message its sended to server, and server resend it to ALL clients connected.<br />
<br />
Any hints how I can do this best ? Some code will nice also because im new to this.

Multi Thread Server Client

Java is a platform-independent, object-oriented programming language and run-time environment, designed to have as few implementation dependencies as possible such that developers can write one set of code across all platforms using libraries. Most devices will not run Java natively, and require a run-time component to be installed in order to execute a Java program.
