Can not read number send with DataOutputStream

Question

this is my Client code

Random rand = new Random();
int  n = rand.nextInt(50) + 1;
DataInputStream dis = new DataInputStream(_socket.getInputStream());
DataOutput         


        

Answer 1

The client needs to either call dos.flush() or dos.close() to cause buffered data to be pushed to the server. (If you intend to write more data, then flush, otherwise close.)

The server side needs to read the data using readInt on the DataInputStream instance. Data that is written using a DataOutputStream should be read using a DataInputStream.

Finally, get rid of BufferedReader/InputStreamReader. It is just wrong.
