byte[]

[bobo67]

hi,
I'm sending a byte[] from client to server. but the received byte[] isn't the same as with byte[] I had sent. Why this occurs?
Regards,

How is this a different question from your other thread: converting-string-byte?

I think it's different. could you please help me?

Can you do some debugging with your code to identify how the byte[] is not being sent properly? Are all the bytes sent being received? If 33 are sent are 33 bytes received? Is there one or more bytes that are received with different values than they were sent as?
What is the value of the byte and what is its position in the array?

For example the 17th byte was sent as a 0x83 and received as a 0x3F

post your code where the problem is happening

[bobo67]

here's the code

//client
{
        Socket skt = new Socket("localhost", 4444);
	System.out.print("Socket is open.");
	OutputStream out = skt.getOutputStream();
	DataOutputStream dout = new DataOutputStream(out);
	dout.write([COLOR="Red"]M1e[/COLOR], 0, 48);
	System.out.print(M1e+ "sent");
	out.close();
}
//server
{
byte[] bytes = new byte[65536];
       Socket skt = srvr.accept();
        System.out.print("Server has connected!\n");
 
        InputStream ins = skt.getInputStream();
        DataInputStream din = new DataInputStream(ins);
        din.read([COLOR="Red"]bytes[/COLOR]);
        System.out.print("Received");
        System.out.println(bytes);
}

I don't know why M1e and bytes aren't equal.

When posting code here, please use code tags so that your code will retain its formatting and thus will be readable -- after all, your goal is to get as many people to read your post and understand your code as possible, right?

To do this, highlight your pasted code (please be sure that it is already formatted when you paste it into the forum; the code tags don't magically format unformatted code) and then press the code button, and your code will have tags.

Another way to do this is to manually place the tags into your code by placing the tag [code] above your pasted code and the tag [/code] below your pasted code like so:

[code]
  // your code goes here
  // notice how the top and bottom tags are different
[/code]

Are all the bytes sent being received? If 33 are sent are 33 bytes received? Is there one or more bytes that are received with different values than they were sent as?
What is the value of the byte and what is its position in the array?

I send [B@1eec612, and the length is 384.
I receive [B@ca0b6, and the size is 384 too.

You are currently seeing the toString representation of an array, and while the two array addresses are different as to be expected, this tells you nothing about the array contents other than they are both arrays of bytes.

I send [B@1eec612, and the length is 384.
I receive [B@ca0b6, and the size is size of my bytes variable which is 384.

Compare the first 384 bytes of your receiving array with what was sent. And also please read the API documentation for the DataInputStream and DataOutputStream classes; your code shows that you don't know how they work.

kind regards,

Jos

M1e and bytes aren't equal.

You have not shown how you know the bytes are not equal. See last part of post#4.
There could be useful info if you do some more debugging.
