ServerSocket java not reading inputStream?

Question

I have written a server is java here is the code:

public mainClass() 
{ 
    try 
    { 
        ss = new ServerSocket(8080); 

        while (true) 
        { 
         


        

Answer 1

My guess is that the client application doesn't send any line break at the end of the string it sends. So BufferedReader.readLine() waits for an EOL character, and only returns the string when the client application ends, because at this point the connection is closed and the reader knows there won't ever be an EOL, and the string is the last line it will ever receive.
