Hello there,

    What does the constructor 1024 for the new object new byte represent. (Be gentle for I am a rookie).

Sounds like your best bet is to make a pump thread. Basically create a
thread class with a Run method that continually pushes anything waiting
in the input stream to the output. Something like this...

public class PumpThread implements Runnable {

private InputStream in;
private OutputStream out;

public PumpThread(InputStream in, OutputStream out) {
this.in = in;
this.out = out;
}

public void Run() {
byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];
while ((buffer = in.read()) != null) {
out.write(buffer);
}
}

}

I didn't try the code and it's been awhile, so I might've pulled some
reader/writer methods into the streams (or just misused a method or two
all together). It could also probably benefit by adjusting the byte
array size and including a Thread.sleep() (unless you're using a
BufferedReader). Hope that helps.
