Java deadlock problem....
- by markovuksanovic
I am using java sockets for communication. On the client side I have some processing and at this point I send an object to the cient. The code is as follows:
while (true) {
try {
Socket server = new Socket("localhost", 3000);
OutputStream os = server.getOutputStream();
InputStream is = server.getInputStream();
CommMessage commMessage = new CommMessageImpl();
ByteArrayOutputStream bos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
ObjectOutputStream oos = new ObjectOutputStream(bos);
oos.writeObject(commMessage);
os.write(bos.toByteArray());
os.flush();
byte[] buff = new byte[512];
int bytesRead = 0;
ByteArrayOutputStream receivedObject = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
while ((bytesRead = is.read(buff)) > -1) {
receivedObject.write(buff, 0, bytesRead);
System.out.println(receivedObject);
}
os.close();
Thread.sleep(10000);
} catch (IOException e) {
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
}
}
Next on the server side I have the following code to read the object and write the response (Which is just an echo message)
public void startServer() {
Socket client = null;
try {
server = new ServerSocket(3000);
logger.log(Level.INFO, "Waiting for connections.");
client = server.accept();
logger.log(Level.INFO, "Accepted a connection from: " + client.getInetAddress());
os = new ObjectOutputStream(client.getOutputStream());
is = new ObjectInputStream(client.getInputStream());
// Read contents of the stream and store it into a byte array.
byte[] buff = new byte[512];
int bytesRead = 0;
ByteArrayOutputStream receivedObject = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
while ((bytesRead = is.read(buff)) > -1) {
receivedObject.write(buff, 0, bytesRead);
}
// Check if received stream is CommMessage or not contents.
CommMessage commMessage = getCommMessage(receivedObject);
if (commMessage != null) {
commMessage.setSessionState(this.sessionManager.getState().getState());
ByteArrayOutputStream bos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
ObjectOutputStream oos = new ObjectOutputStream(bos);
oos.writeObject(commMessage);
os.write(bos.toByteArray());
System.out.println(commMessage.getCommMessageType());
} else {
processData(receivedObject, this.sessionManager);
}
os.flush();
} catch (IOException e) {
} finally {
try {
is.close();
os.close();
client.close();
server.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
}
}
}
The above code works ok if I do not try to read data on the client side (If i exclude the code related to reading). But if I have that code, for some reason, I get some kind of deadlock when accessing input streams. Any ideas what I might have done wrong? Thanks in advance.
