ok.. Bare with me. I'm new to the ideas of OO. and new to Java..
but catching on.
I open a new NetworkClient connection to a host
client=new NetworkClient(telnethost,telnetport);
I check to see how much data is in the input stream
numthere=client.serverInput.available();
I proceed to read that data
client.serverInput.read(telnetline,0,numthere);
Now, i would assume that when "numthere" is "0" (as it seems to be often)
client.serverInput.read would NOT block waiting to read "0" bytes from
a stream with "0" bytes waiting to be read.. tho that seems to be the
case.... If numthere=0 the applet hangs at the read...
It was easily fixed by first checking to see if "numthere > 0"
before doing the read...
Am i doing something wrong with my read?
Better yet.. is there a NON-Blocking input/output stream implemented?
i didn't seem to see anything of the sort (*new to java*).
