draw line position - networking

[solomon13000]

The code bellow will enable users to scrible anything on a canvas. Now
what I intend to do is to create a vector object for every position
(pre_x,pre_y,x, y) of the lines drawn on the canvas and send it using
a socket connection to a remote server.

public void mouseDragged(MouseEvent e)
{
if(isButtonPressed==true)
{
pre_x=e.getX()+scrollbarH_value;
pre_y=e.getY()+scrollbarV_value;
isButtonPressed=false;
}
x=e.getX()+scrollbarH_value;
y=e.getY()+scrollbarV_value;
offscreenImageG.drawLine( pre_x, pre_y, x, y);
pre_x=x;
pre_y=y;
repaint();
e.consume();
message.setText(pre_x + ":" + pre_y + ":" + x + ":" + y);
}

Is my apporach considered to be feasible?. Any other ways?

Regards.

Why are you using AWT in this day and age? If you
are (primarily) using Swing, why are you mixing Swing
with AWT?

..Now what I intend to do is to create a vector

ArrayList (is probably) a better alternative to Vector,
since Java 1.2.

...object for every position
(pre_x,pre_y,x, y) of the lines drawn on the canvas and send it using
a socket connection to a remote server. ...
Is my apporach considered to be feasible?.

By who? I consider it feasible, until you try it and find
it fails because (..insert reason here).

..Any other ways?

Construct the (joined) points into a GeneralPath and send
that, if they are not joined, send an ArrayList of same.
