Here is the code to write a serverSocket which listens on a given port. I have used a dummy Socket to change serverSocket's port dynamically. This method uses a inner class which is basically a thread and it creates a serversocket in thread by given port no. If you want to change its port dynamically just create a dummysocket to the given serversocket and alter the flag boolean variable then create new thread with new port. If any one can optimize it please add your ideas. I am not the Best. :)
Restart Your ServerSocket with dummySocket
