BufferedReader not reading all lines

Question

I am in the process of creating an Android application that communicates with the PC using a Bluetooth connection. I am attempting to send items from an ArrayList from the PC to the Android.

Answer 1

Try flushing the outputstream and Closing the outputstream. This should flush the remaining data in the buffer to the Android device. Also you need to add a new line escape character to every output (if there is not present one within the values of the ArrayList) i.e. on your PC code do something like this:

            PC Code:


            list = FilterFile.aList;
            for(int z = 0; z < list.size(); z++) {
                int a = list.size();
                System.out.println("in for\n"+list.size());
                String str = list.get(z);
                System.out.println(str);
                out.write((str+"\n").getBytes());
                out.flush();
            }  
            out.close();     


            Android (Client) side code:


            public class ConnectedThread extends Thread {
        private BluetoothSocket mmSocket;
        private InputStream mmInStream = null;
        public OutputStream mmOutStream = null;
        private static final String TAG = "ConnectedThread";
        private static final boolean D = true; 
        int i;
        char a;
        String line;
        String y = "";
        //DataInputStream din=null;

        public ConnectedThread(BluetoothSocket socket) {
            mmSocket = socket;
            InputStream tmpIn = null;
            OutputStream tmpOut = null;
            try {
                tmpIn = socket.getInputStream();
                tmpOut = socket.getOutputStream();
            } catch (IOException e) { }

            mmInStream = tmpIn;
            mmOutStream = tmpOut;
            //din = new DataInputStream(mmInStream);
            if (D) Log.e(TAG, "-- in connected() --");
        }

        public void run() {
            if (D) Log.e(TAG, "-- ConnectedThread --");                 
        }

        public void write(byte[] bytes) {
            try {
                mmOutStream.write(bytes);
            } catch (IOException e) { }
        }

        public String readList() {

                        String data = "";
            try {
                byte buff[] = new byte[1024];
                int count = -1;

                while((count = mmInStream.read(buff, 0, 1024)) != -1){
                    data += new String(buff,0,count);
                }
                String lines[] = data.split("\n");

                for(int i = 0; i < lines.length; i++){

                    //this will print your individual lines...
                    System.out.println(lines[i]);
                }


            } catch (Exception e) {
                ///print your error message here
            }   
            finally{
            if(in != null){
                try {
                mmInStream.close();
                } catch (Exception e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
                }
            }
           }
           return data;
            }

        public void cancel() {
            try {
                mmSocket.close();
            } catch (IOException e) { }
        }

}

Answer 2

Try to call the write method only once (and flush/close the buffer just after calling it):

String str = "";
for(int z = 0; z < list.size(); z++) {
    str += list.get(z);
}

System.out.println(str);
out.write(str.getBytes());
out.flush();
out.close();
