How two applets can talk to each other

Networking & Multiplayer
#1

Sorry for bothering u guys but do not know how to solve the problem … :-/

That’s the question: how can two applets talk to each other. The two applets are on different clients, I have a server and the clients have an open socket with the server with whom they talk. There is a different thread for every client.

BUT NOW … how can the server send information arriving from one applet to the other ? ???

TIA for any reply.

just take the InputStream from 1 client, and feed it to the OutputStream to the other client (and vice-versa ofcourse)

Incidentally, on the Server you don’t need 1 Thread for each client. It realy depends on what your doing.

I’d have to see your setup to know what was wrong.

I have Apache running on my machine; which is hosting the Applet. Then have the Server also running on my machine.
I can say for sure that definitly works :slight_smile:
