Socket reading in defined thread

[Linux-Us]

Hi
I am creating a Client application and have come through a problem in the code. I think the problem is concerned to reading the socket in a thread, which I used for better efficiency. When i start the client application a message is sent to the server application and the server application should send a message in reply to the client. I have thrown an exception with a pointer, the code is below

while ((response = socketReader.readLine()) != null) // <- an exception is thrown here 
	System.out.println(response);                // and subsequent running is stopped!

I do not know were I am wrong. The server application works fine, I think the problem is in client application

Hello
You have not posted the code, it would be better to identify the problem if the code is present. Ok, forget it what exception is the stack trace is giving. Please paste the exception in the next post so that we can tell you what is the problem. Any more problem do post again.

Hi
Sorry for not posting the code. The code is too big so I am posting the error reported by the stack trace.

OutputHandler, wakeup and die!

Hello
I think the socket is getting closed before it has finished reading the line. I am posting you a sample program. just go through it and see if it helps you.

class net2op extends Thread {
	BufferedReader sr;
	
	public net2op(BufferedReader sr) {
		this.sr = sr;
	}

	public void run() {
		try {
			String response;
			while ((response = sr.readLine()) != null)
				System.out.println(response);
		} catch (UnknownHostException e) {
			e.printStackTrace();
		} catch (IOException e) {
			e.printStackTrace();
		}
	}
}

I any problem do post back. Best of luck.
