[SOLVED] problem in socket connection

[neeraj.singh]

hello,

i am new in socket programming..
i am trying to run below code but it hangs when i call the accept() method on the serversocket's obj.

public class HTTPServer  {
    public static void main ( String a [  ]  )  throws Exception  {
    final int httpd = 80;

    ServerSocket ssock = new ServerSocket ( httpd ) ;
    System.out.println ( "have opened port 80 locally" ) ;
    try
    {
    Socket sock = ssock.accept (  ) ;
    System.out.println ( "client has made socket connection" ) ;
    }
    catch(java.io.IOException e)
    {
        System.out.println("Could establish the connection");
    }
    }
  }

Please help me out...
thanks

Is there a corresponding client code trying to send something to the posted server code? Your code isn't hung... it's waiting for something to come through the port.
