Problem with Collection/Arraylist

Posted by Carsten on October 21, 2000 at 4:27 AM

Hello Javafreaks,

I've got the following problem:

-Java 1.1 application (port communication)
-contains an arraylist (Collection threadList = new Arraylist())
-this application creates a new instance of another class, a listener which monitors port activity on a specific TCP port.
-every time a connection request on this port is detected this listener class creates an instance of a third class which will handle the communication.
-I have to add those instances to my threadList.
-If I do this from within the listener class using an interface method I have created in my base class the threadList collection remains empty.
-If I try to add a new object from within my base class it works as expected.

What can I do?
