    Question servlet response

    Hi,

    this is my server code:
    	protected void doPost(HttpServletRequest request,
    			HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException {
                    boolean res = false;
    		...
    		PrintWriter writer = response.getWriter();
    		writer.println(res);
    		writer.close();
    	}
    this is a client site:
    ...
    			HttpURLConnection connection = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
    ...
    			BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(
    					new InputStreamReader(connection.getInputStream()) );
    ...
    How can I get a res from server?

    I can get "200 OK" (e.g. connection.getContent() etc.), I can get html (with reader), but I don't found, how can I get the res from writer.println(res).

    Thanks in advance.

    Default Re: servlet response

    What the PrintWriter wrote in your servlet should be what is read with your reader on the client side. What content does the client side read? Are you sending data to the servlet via an HTTP POST request (if not, you should use the doGet method)?

    Default Re: servlet response

    yes, via POST
    			connection.setRequestMethod( "POST" );
    			connection.setDoInput( true );
    			connection.setDoOutput( true );
    			connection.setUseCaches( false );
    			connection.setRequestProperty( "Content-Type",
    			"application/x-www-form-urlencoded" );
    			connection.setRequestProperty( "Content-Length", String.valueOf(body.length()) );
    			OutputStreamWriter writer = new OutputStreamWriter( connection.getOutputStream() );
    			writer.write( body );
    			writer.flush();
