Am trying to access a 'C' structure through Sockets. Server is written in C and client is written in java. When the client tries to getInputStream() for Socket it throws an Exception : InputStreamCorrupted :"The InputStream does not contain Serialized (object)information".

Question : Is the InputStream expecting the structure to be serialized before it is recieved at the client side ?

Error at this line of Code:
ObjectInputStream ois = new ObjectInputStream(clientSocket.getInputStream());
