    final int PORT_NUMBER = 44574;

    while(true) {
        try {
        //Listen on port
        ServerSocket serverSock = new ServerSocket(PORT_NUMBER);
        System.out.println("Listening...");

        //Get connection
        Socket clientSock = serverSock.accept();
        System.out.println("Connected client");

        //Get input
        BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(clientSock.getInputStream()));
        System.out.println(br.readLine());

        br.close();
        serverSock.close();
        clientSock.close();
        } catch(Exception e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
    }
}

public class TestClient {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
    final int PORT_NUMBER = 44574;
    final String HOSTNAME = "xx.xx.xx.xx";

    //Attempt to connect
    try {
        Socket sock = new Socket(HOSTNAME, PORT_NUMBER);
            PrintWriter out = new PrintWriter(sock.getOutputStream(), true);
        //Output
        out.println("Test");
        out.flush();

        out.close();
        sock.close();
    } catch(Exception e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
    }
}

We got the exception as Java Networking “Connection Refused: Connect”.
Answer:
This problem comes under the following situations:
      1. Client and Server, either or both of them are not in network.
      2. Server is not running.
      3. Server is running but not listening on port, client is trying to connect.
      4. Firewall is not permitted for host-port combination.
      5. Host port combination is incorrect.
      6. Incorrect protocol in Connecting String.

To solve the problem:
      1. First you ping destination server. If that is pinging properly, then the client and server are both in network.
      2. Try connecting to server host and port using telnet. If you are able to connect with it, then you're making some mistakes in the client code.

Multithreading in java with example

Multithreading  is one of the most important concept in core java. In this article we will learn what is multithreading? , what is the use of it? and What is the use of Synchronization and when to use it?  with detailed examples. At a time, two or more threads are accessing the same object is called as Multithreading  in Java .  First, we will create two threads for two objects. It is also possible to run two or more threads on a single class object. In this case, there is a possibility to get unreliable results. If the two threads are perform same task, then they need same object to be executed each time. For your better understanding, take an example of any reservations like, railway, movie ticket booking,etc. Let us think only one berth is available in a train and two passengers are asking for that berth. The first person has sent a request to allocate that ticket/berth to him. At the same time, the second person also sent a request to allocate that ticket/berth to him
