theSocket=new Socket(e.inet,thePort);
in=new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(theSocket.getInputStream()));
out=new PrintWriter(new OutputStreamWriter(theSocket.getOutputStream()),true)
create input and oupput stream like this
and then get ur username from textfield like
uname=tf1.getText();
and then send it to server with some initial string before it
so server can understand that it is username
like and get username from tht i think this much is enough.
out.println("#"+uname);
thanks 4 thanks
