Create proxy http

[Ash maker]

Hello,
I am trying to write a http proxy in java using sockets. I get the header of the browser. Then I forward it to the web server. Then I get the header from the server and the message.
Problem:
The server does not send the message length ( "Content-Length:")
How do I know where I must stop reading?
I tried several methods

buffer = null
-tampon.equals ( "0"))
This does not work all the time.
is a string buffer (buffer = in.readLine ()).

Hello,
Just check this part of the code

String buffer = "";
while ( (buffer = in.readLine()) != null) { / / You put the line you just read into your buffer variable and you test it void.
/ / What you do.
}

After to know the type of file server you must return a Content-Type header (head has therefore also check the http rfc) which allows you to know (text, png, jpeg ...)

Hello,
Thank you for your reply, My problem is rule: I have used the method read

(char [])!=- 1

and it works well. I would look for the http rfc cache. Is there any other alternative for the doing the same. If there are any other methods then please help me.

Hello,
Even I have the same problem with the program, I am also trying the same code on the http proxy. I am half done.
It crashes in this statement:

while ((buffer = in.readLine ())! = null)

What is the problem with my code, Is the socket is closed? Am I correct?

Hello,
I still have the problem to retrieve the message from the server in the header if I do not have the message length. I tried the 2 methods but none of them worked. this is my code here.

while( true )
	{
	buff = fromServer.readLine();
	if(buff == null) break;
message + = buff +"\ r\ n";
						
	}

Hi,
What feeds you use to retrieve the data? It seems that some flow block until there is no data. If I remember avalaible function () which returns you the number of bytes that can still be read, look in the javadoc it will help you, try using this method and then see if the code runs. If you have any problem then do post back.
