I am designing a
java server using java's ServerSocket class. The issue is that i have to run a infinite loop to handle all the incoming requests. Now i also intent to a lot of other things in that application. Is there a way to run the server to hear the requests and then do other tasks also such as giving response to other things happening to application.
To explain a little more the application is a server as well as a data management program. User enters the data and it is needed to be saved. But if the application keep stuck in waiting for the serversockets it can not process the data.
Any help will be much appreciated.
Regards
