Help with Vectors and Strings...

[kaban]

Hey all,

I am having problems with getting proper size Strings from a Vector. I have this function:

	public static String HandleUsername(Vector name, Vector address, Vector port, DatagramPacket user)
	{
		InetAddress a = user.getAddress();
		String p = Integer.toString(user.getPort());

		for (int i = 0; i < name.size(); i++)
		{
			if (address.elementAt(i).toString().equals(a.toString()) == true && 
				port.elementAt(i).toString().equals(p) == true)
			{
				return (String)name.elementAt(i);
			}
		}

		return "/fail";
	}

If I do a function call:

String s = HandleUsername(name, address, port, user)

The size of that string s is always 65504 if I use s.length(). Why does this happen? Basically when I try pull the String from a Vector it gives me a max size (I think?) String. How do I get the actual size of the String?

Any ideas?

I have figured it out. Was a problem with converting from byte array to a String.
