I am just trying to send some files from a socket and i am able to send those files without any interruption: also whether the size file is small or large that does not matter it sends like a charm.
But the problem in my case that is arising is the file that i sent is being corrupted, i.e. it is not playing like audio or video. I have already gone through this but it did not helped.
The code that I am using is below.
Server Side:
File file = new File(
Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory(),
"testingFile.mp4");
byte[] mybytearray = new byte[4096];
FileInputStream fis = null;
try {
fis = new FileInputStream(file);
} catch (FileNotFoundException ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
}
BufferedInputStream bis = new BufferedInputStream(fis);
DataInputStream dis = new DataInputStream(bis);
OutputStream os;
DataOutputStream dos = null;
try {
os = socket.getOutputStream();
dos = new DataOutputStream(os);
dos.writeUTF(file.getName());
dos.writeLong(mybytearray.length);
int read;
while ((read = dis.read(mybytearray)) != -1) {
dos.write(mybytearray, 0, read);
}
socket.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
try {
if (dos != null) {
dos.flush();
}
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
And the Client Side :
File file = new File(
Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory(),
"TEST SUCCESS.mp4");
InputStream in = null;
int bufferSize;
try {
bufferSize = socket.getReceiveBufferSize();
in = socket.getInputStream();
DataInputStream clientData = new DataInputStream(in);
String fileName = clientData.readUTF();
System.out.println(fileName);
OutputStream output = new FileOutputStream(
file);
byte[] buffer = new byte[bufferSize];
int read;
while ((read = clientData.read(buffer)) != -1) {
output.write(buffer, 0, read);
}
output.flush();
socket.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
if (in != null) {
in.close();
}
}
Thanks in advance.
So after the conversations in comments and as @MarquisofLorne told to delete the line that i have written in my server side code. i.e either delete this line from server side code:
dos.writeLong(mybytearray.length);
or write this below line code in client side code:
long sizeOfFile = clientData.readLong();
It solves the problem.
