socket communications in JFX

[Jose Martinez]

Hello,

I am preparing to implement multiplayer capabilities.  Saw one or two articles out there about socket communications and JFX but they were from JFX 1.x.

I guess my first question is, is there a way to communicate from a socket thread directly to the JFX main thread or does the JFX main thread need to poll some shared object?  Is there any recent documentation out there on either the topic of socket communications within JFX or even just multithreading in JFX applications?

thanks!
