I am new to Socket programming in Java and was trying to understand if the below code is not a wrong thing to do. My question is:
Can I have multiple clients on each thread trying to connect to a server instance in the same program and expect the server to read and write data with isolation between clients"
public class Client extends Thread
{
...
void run()
{
Socket socket = new Socket("localhost", 1234);
doIO(socket);
}
}
public class Server extends Thread
{
...
void run()
{
// serverSocket on "localhost", 1234
Socket clientSock = serverSocket.accept();
executor.execute(new ClientWorker(clientSock));
}
}
Now can I have multiple Client instances on different threads trying to connect on the same port of the current machine?
For example,
Server s = new Server("localhost", 1234);
s.start();
Client[] c = new Client[10];
for (int i = 0; i < c.length; ++i)
{
c.start();
}
