Thread: How to setup a server-multiple- clientenvironment

i don't know the details of it , but u have to have the server multi-thread listen on the port that each client would connect on

server
listen on port xxxx
when u get a new incoming connection create new thread
send/receive what ever
on client close kill thread

probably something like that i'm still working on a smiler thing here

thank you for responding.

so, i have to use serversocket + socket to establish a server client thing.
then use the thread thing to make it server- multi-client thing.

something like that?

and what do you mean by
"on client close kill thread"?

and what about multicast?
do i still have too use it?

idk about the multicast . but the "on client close kill tread" goes to the only way i saw how those are set up , where each accepted connection is handled by a new thread ,then when they disconnect it would leave a useless running thread , and u don't want threads that have no use slowing down the program , so u close/kill it
