Hi,
The description of the readLine() method reads:
"Reads in a line that has been terminated by a \n, \r, \r\n or EOF."
1) Is a 'line' a sequence/array of chars, bytes or is it a String?
2) When I terminate a String with a '\n' and send it from my server via
DataOutputStream's writeChars() method my applet which
receives with DataInputStream's readLine() method does nothing. When the
applet receives the data with readChar() in a loop the String is correctly
received (with or without the '\n'). Any ideas?
3) Assuming that I'll get the readLine() method to work correctly, how
does one terminate it with EOF? I've searched but found nothing.
Thanks alot,
