my system is:the client send some data byte[] to the server,the server receive it,using socket,outputstream,inputstream.now the problem is:the sender's data length is different with the receiver's length!
The Client:
Os=socket.getOutputStream();
Os.write((byte[])buf.getData());
Os.flush();

The Server:
int byteCount=is.available();
bytes=new byte[byteCount];
is.read(bytes);

the bytes' length in server is different with that in client

why??
and help are appreciated

That is according to my opinion no Socket problem. You assume that is.available() return the size of the entire byte array. Whereupon I did not rely.

Use a BufferedInputStream is and do something like this:


Vector v = new Vector();
while((i = is.read()) != -1) {
       b = new Byte((byte)i); //or other type
       v.add(b);
}
out.close();
