Hi TD Thanks.
I have problem understanding the codes in github, Object SocketReceiver.byteToLines(...) <https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/095b5182536a43e2ae738be93294ee5215d86581/streaming/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/streaming/dstream/SocketInputDStream.scala> private[streaming] object SocketReceiver { /** * This methods translates the data from an inputstream (say, from a socket) * to '\n' delimited strings and returns an iterator to access the strings. */ def bytesToLines(inputStream: InputStream): Iterator[String] = { val dataInputStream = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(inputStream, "UTF-8")) new NextIterator[String] { protected override def getNext() = { val nextValue = dataInputStream.readLine() if (nextValue == null) { finished = true } nextValue } protected override def close() { dataInputStream.close() } } } Sorry will need some time to digest this. I do not know scala at the moment. But I understand what you mean about the implementation.
