inputstreamreader

While running an external script, I want to read the ErrorStream and OutputStream of this script both simultaneously and separately and then process them further. Therefore, I start a Thread for one of the streams. Unfortunately, the Process doesn't seem to waitFor the Thread to be terminated, but return after the non-threaded stream has no further input. In a nutshell, here is what I am doing: ProcessBuilder pb = new ProcessBuilder(script); final Process p = pb.start(); new Thread(new Runnable() { public void run() { BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(p

Hi I want to read the content of a web page that contains a German characters using java , unfortunately , the German characters appear as strange characters . Any help please here is my code: String link = "some german link"; URL url = new URL(link); BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(url.openStream())); String inputLine; while ((inputLine = in.readLine()) != null) { System.out.println(inputLine); } You have to set the correct encoding. You can find the encoding in the HTTP header: Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1 This may be overwritten in the (X)HTML

I want to send a command to a server, and find out if I get a response. Right now i am using BufferedReader 's readline() function, which blocks until there's a response from server, but all I want to do is verify that there's a response from the server in the first place. I tried using ready() or reset() to avoid this block, but it doesn't help. This is causing my program to get stuck waiting for the server to respond, which never happens. InputStreamReader seems to do the same thing, by my understanding of things. Other questions I found here on the subject didn't answer my question, so

This piece of code is creating memory leak issues cause of BufferedReader and InputStreamReader which I think might be happening cause of some exceptions. How should I change it? try{ URL url = new URL(sMyUrl); BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(url.openStream())); while ((str = in.readLine()) != null) { jsonString += str; } in.close(); }catch(Exception e){ } It would be safer to close your stream using a try..finally block. You might also use a StringBuilder as it is designed for concatenating strings. You should also avoid catching Exception and doing nothing with
