Send and receive serialize object on UDP

Question

I am trying to send a serialized object from a server process to a client process in Java using UDP. The problem is that the client is being blocked on the receive method. C

Answer 1

I didnt really test it, but I am pretty sure - based on the description - that the datagramsocket.reseive function will block until the packet is filled (in your case until 100000 bytes are received).

This is wrong. The receive function will block until a datagram is received, which can be smaller than the buffer size (and usually will be). The method packet.getLength() will tell you how big it was.
