I am trying to develop an app in which
1.client sends request to server for connection(IP address+PORT no.)+sends data using "PrintStream"+Tries to read the data from Server(Using Inputstream)
2.Client creates the socket.
3.Server reads the data send by Client
4.SERVER writes the data using "PrintStream" at same time point no 3.
Problem is at point 4 Data written by SERVER is not Read by "INPUTSTREAM" of client(Point 1) I dont know these Simultaneous operation are possible or not.If possible then how.If not then what is the alternate way?

As I commented above, there is nothing in this code that corresponds to either of these steps:
2.Server gets the request creates new SOCKET connection.
(a) There is no request, and (b) the server does not create a new connection. The client creates it. The server accepts it.
3.Server reads the data send by Client.
The client doesn't send any data.
There are two problems here (at least):
readLine() waiting for a message that the client never sends. So it never gets to its own send, so nothing is received by the client. Have the client send a request, as per the comments.available(). Remove this test and let the client fall through into the read loop. It will exit that when the peer (the server) closes the connection.
