Java Socket communication (client server two way)

Create two new projects, 1 client and 1 server. Start the server and then start the client

The read-write thread classes for both projects are essentially identical

Server:

import java.io.BufferedReader; 
import java.io.DataInputStream; 
import java.io.DataOutputStream; 
import java.io.IOException; 
import java.io.InputStreamReader; 
import java.net.ServerSocket; 
import java.net.Socket; 
 
public class Server { 
 
  public static final int PORT = 8000;// The port number to listen to    
 
  public static void main(String[] args) {  
    Server server = new Server();  
    server.init();  
  }  
 
  public void init() {  
    ServerSocket serverSocket = null; 
    try {  
      serverSocket = new ServerSocket(PORT);  
      while (true) {  
        Socket client = serverSocket.accept();  
        //1 Two client connections on account opening handle reads and writes   
        new Thread(new ReadHandlerThread(client)).start();  
        new Thread(new WriteHandlerThread(client)).start();  
      }  
    } catch (Exception e) {  
      e.printStackTrace();  
    } finally{ 
      try { 
        if(serverSocket != null){ 
          serverSocket.close(); 
        } 
      } catch (IOException e) { 
        e.printStackTrace(); 
      } 
    } 
  }  
}
