How do I make this program exit when I run it in terminal using the Java JDK in Ubuntu?
I want to type in "end" when this program is running, but I can't get it to work. It listens for clients and calls a thread thingy to create a socket for the new client. I can't figure out how to make this program end. I tried everything.
I started learning java yesterday. Please help me....
import java.net.*; //jave lib
import java.io.*; //io lib
public class MultiServerConnections { //initiate class
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
int portNum = 5342; //set server port number
boolean listen = true;
System.out.println("Listening for Connections"); //print message
ServerSocket server_Socket = null; //set server_Socket to null
try {
server_Socket = new ServerSocket(portNum); //set server port
} catch (IOException e) {
System.err.println("Port " + portNum + " is unavailable"); //port is taken error
System.exit(1);
}
BufferedReader stdIn = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in)); //set reader
String input;
//while (TCPglobals.checkRequests){
while (listen == true){
new MultiServer(server_Socket.accept()).start();
input = stdIn.readLine();
//if(TCPglobals.checkRequests == false) //|| (input = stdIn.readLine()) == "end")
if(input == "end") {
System.out.println("end connection?");
System.exit(1);
}
}//while
server_Socket.close(); //close server socket
}
}
