    Default Java Socket Exception Socket Closed

    I am trying to write a chat application using java sockets... The Concept is Server listens on a port for clients when client comes in as the first step the server will store as username and client's link socket as sockettuple(An object which has username as string and linksocket as socket) .. then after storing it sends the client as welcome you are connected ..Server listens in listenthread and communications happen in separate thread.. for client creation of socket happens in main thread and writing to server happens in separate thread In this the storing of socket tuple happens fine but on sending the message from server to client Socketclosed exception happens on both server write and client's read threads......
        // mainserver.java
        import java.net.*;
        import java.io.*;
        class listenthread extends Thread{
        ​ServerSocket mserver;
        ​Socket link,targetsocket;
        ​String user,targetuser;
        ​sockettuple targettuple,starray[]= new sockettuple[10];
        ​
        ​
        ​int i=0;
        ​
        ​public listenthread(ServerSocket mserver){

        ​ this.mserver=mserver;
        ​
        ​
        ​}
        ​catch (Exception e){

    Welcome to the forum, and thanks for taking the time to learn to post code correctly, although your code formatting has been lost, and your code is difficult to read. Even so, I can see that you've closed the socket(s) in the while( true ) loops that do the polling and responding. Don't do that.

    Somewhere the socket is being closed before it should be or it has never been properly opened. Find it and fix it. We can't help with code we can't see. Post the shortest code example possible that demonstrates the problem.
