Java NIO: calling selector.select() before socketChannel.write()

Hi all.

I=92m looking at ways to simplify our current implementation of socket
communications between an agent and multiple clients. There is a client
connection object created per connected client, client connection is
passed through an =93incoming" selector and each client connection opens its=

own outgoing selector. So, question 1: do I need to create separate
outgoing selectors, or is using a single selector for both in and out
operations is the way to go?

Next, before each invocation of socketChannel.write(=85) method, we do
outgoingSelector.select(). Is it necessary to do select() before write
operations?

Our knowledge of NIO is rather limited, hence all this questions.

Much appreciated=85
