Socket

[vortex]

I was experimenting with sockets in java, but i keep getting an exception: java.net.socketexception socket closed...Although i never closed the socket...
Code:

====Server===

BufferedReader in;
PrintWriter out;
try
{
ServerSocket listenSocket = new ServerSocket(1331);
Socket clientSocket = listenSocket.accept();
in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(clientSocket.getInputStream()));
out = new PrintWriter(clientSocket.getOutputStream());
String data = in.readLine();
System.out.println("Got Data: "+data);
out.write("Server Received: "+data);
out.close();
listenSocket.close();
}
catch(IOException e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
}


===Client===

Socket s = null;
BufferedReader in;
BufferedWriter out;
try
{
s = new Socket("localhost",1331);
in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(s.getInputStream()));
out = new BufferedWriter(new OutputStreamWriter(s.getOutputStream()));
out.write("Data From Client Here...");
out.close();
String data = in.readLine();
System.out.println("Data Recieved From Server: "+ data) ;
s.close();
}
catch (Exception e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
}


As u can see, the code does nothing fancy..the server recieved a string and sends back a confirmation...The server works fine thats for sure, but the problem is with the client, i know that the client freezes when it reachers the line "String data = in.readLine()"

Any help would be appreciated...
Thanks...

when u close the stream the socket associated with is also get closed.
so remove out.close and write it below ur readline.

Normally best place to end such processes are finally clause. Much safer it is.
