Client-Server Java GUI: read/write causing program to freeze

Question

I\'m doing a client/server program in Java (including a GUI). I\'ve got the following code in the client:

public class SBListener implements ActionListener{
  pu         


        

Answer 1

My guess is that outToServer isn't being flushed. I would guess (although I can't tell from your sample code) that outToServer is a DataOutputStream. You need to call .flush to get the data out of the buffer and onto the wire.

Try this:

outToServer.writeUTF(usn.getText().trim());
outToServer.flush();
