Hello...
I'm developing a network application. I need to store the sockets accepted from my ServerSocket object in a Vector for temporary usage. Is there any way to get the particular Socket that is connected to a particular client, from the Vector, for communication with that Client?
Please help me..
Thanks in advance...

It's not much more difficult that using a Vector. Two of the methods you can use I just mentioned above. Use the API doco and read the [url http://java.sun.com/developer/JDCTechTips/] TTips [/url] and searches.
If you have code using Vector, post it and perhaps someone will help you convert it or show you where in the code to make the changes.
You probably don't want to do this at all. You probably want to have a Runnable object per client which contains its socket, its input and output streams, and anything else you need to know about the client, and whose run() method handles the client session, and you want to start a a thread per client to execute that Runnable.
The occasions when you need a single data structure containing only accepted Sockets are few indeed, in fact I don't think I've ever used one.
