Hello everybody,

I am trying to read the output of a shell command into a string buffer, the reading and adding the values is ok except for the fact that the added values are every second line in the shell output. for example, I have 10 rows od shell output and this code only stores the 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, row . Can anyone point out why i am not able to catch every row with this code ??? any suggestion or idea is welcomed :)

import java.io.*;

public class Linux {

public static void main(String args[]) {


    try {
    StringBuffer s = new StringBuffer();

Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cat /proc/cpuinfo");
BufferedReader input =
        new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(p.getInputStream()));
while (input.readLine() != null) {
    //System.out.println(line);
s.append(input.readLine() + "\n");

}
System.out.println(s.toString());

} catch (Exception err) { err.printStackTrace(); } } }
