Different types of clients Chatting

[sivakrishna.g]

In our application,We are thinking to develop a project implementing networking (socket programming) and multi threading…


Is it possible to develop a chat application with the following requirements:
1) number of clients need to communicate with the server
(many-to-one).
2) number of experts need to communicate with the server(many-to-one).
3) the server has to exchange the messages(text, voice, video) between connected clients and experts(LIVE SUPPORT) (one-to-one).
4) Further the experts must view the connected clients list in their frame ..

…Is it possible to achieve this requirement using these technologies……….. If no, then which technology do you think supports the requirement??????
Thanking you in advance !!!!!!!

It will take work, but java can do this.
Look into using RMI for starters. This will let you create the client and server connections you need for a java chat.

If it makes you any happier, it will take lots and lots and lots and lots of work. But it would take just as much work--if not more--in other languages/systems.
