RE: Java I/O on Stream

[<Vikrant.Verma@alltel.com>]

U can write the readline() function but why reinvent the wheel. The
bufferedreader does this for you. Also bufferedreader is a subclass of
reader so u can read a byte, array of bytes and a line. 

I have not been able to grasp this thread completely, so if this does
not help then detail your scenario a bit more clearly.

I'm working on a socket where I have to start in line mode to validate
commands then drop toy char by char mode for user interaction.  I was
not buffering until we ran this class on a 800 mhz machine.  Things
started falling apart because I was not able to read data fast enough
from the socket and read() was not returning a line.  Then I relized
that I needed to  do a readLine() instead and then drop to non-buffered
mode.
