Subject: [OT] Multiple text lines over socket


Sorry about OT...

Can someone point me to a technique for reading multiple lines terminated
with newlines (paragraphs?) from a socket in a single read?

Thanks,
Jon




To answer my own question:

StringBuffer buffer = new StringBuffer();
while ((text = socketIn.readLine()) != null) {
 if (!text.equals("bye")) {
   buffer.append(text + "\n");
   continue; // Doh!
 }
 System.out.println(buffer);
 ...
 buffer = new StringBuffer();
 ...
}
