interface that uses two monitors 1

[tig12]

Hi,

Just wanted where would I start to create a user interface that allows two people to use a system.

Two screens, two people both using the same interface.

One person would order something and then the other person would reply with price. Similar to a forum i.e. chatroom.

Is this possible?

Thanks in advance

Is that somehow related to Java?

Cheers,

Yes sorry,

Has java ever been used to create something similar.

Thanks

I think the short answer is yes. It may help to have a look at techniques and technologies that Java provides.

For a chat program i would imagine you may want to have a look at what Java has to offer on Networking. Have a look at java.net package in particular Socket and SocketServer classes.

For a full view of various java technologies see :

For an overview of java Networking link see:

http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/guides/net/index.html

Or simply look for Java networking or sockets tutorials on the Web.
