Hi all, I have a problem with reading from a Java server after I have written to it - it just hangs. It works fine if I just write to the server and not try to write. I have read the HOWTO on sockets - and it states that there is a problem (something about flushing), but not what the solutions is. Nor do google. Can somebody please help?
A few lines down you can see the example code that sums up the problem. Just change the name of the Python HOST-variable. Thanks Mads This is the client in Python: #! /usr/bin/env python import sys from socket import * PORT = 3122 HOST = 'app-5' SUCCESS = 'Success' FAILURE = 'Failure' s = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM) s.connect((HOST, PORT)) s.send("Hi Java Server"); print "Have written, waiting to recieve.." print s.recv(1014) s.close() And this the server in Java: import java.io.*; import java.net.*; public class Server{ public static void main(String args[]){ int port = 3122; int backLog = 50; ServerSocket ss = null; try{ InetAddress localhost = InetAddress.getLocalHost(); ss = new ServerSocket(port, backLog, localhost); while(true){ final Socket client = ss.accept(); new Thread(){ public void run(){ try{ InputStream is = client.getInputStream(); BufferedReader buf = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is)); print(buf.readLine()); PrintWriter out = new PrintWriter(client.getOutputStream()); out.write("Hi Python Client."); out.flush(); client.close(); }catch(Exception e) {print(e);} } }.start(); } }catch(Exception e){print(e);} } private static void print(Object o){System.out.println(o);} } -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
