http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3941 PrinWriter.flush() HttpServletResponse.flushBuffer() do not work [EMAIL PROTECTED] changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|RESOLVED |REOPENED Resolution|WORKSFORME | ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2001-10-04 03:59 ------- I should clarify that I am implementing a SERVLET-TO-SERVLET streaming communication and although the flushing works with a browser it doesn't in a situation such as shown in my simple example. It could be that the problem is not with PrinWriter.flush() or HttpServletResponse.flushBuffer(), but with another component of Tomcat 4 which is doing some additional buffering behind the scenes and thus preventing the output from being sent straight away to the client side. BufferedReader on the client side did not cause any problems on Tomcat 3. When I run my test example under Tomcat 3.2.3 it outputs banana: yellow, waits for 2 seconds then outputs sea: blue, waits for 2 seconds and then outputs snow: white before exiting (AS IT SHOULD). With Tomcat 4 I get all 3 parameters at once and ONLY when the program exits, without the 2 second wait time between the 3 parameters, showing that flushing the writer and the response is not enough to send the output to the client. only when the program exits that the output appears.
