I am new and I only know a little of english. Well my problem is that I have to do a Multithreading server and a Client class to communicate a lot of clients to one server. I am saving my clients in a hashmap and after adding to the hashmap I am using a method to write into a file (HashMap is serializable and I am using singleton pattern to make the hashmap global). The problem is when I try to read from my file, then Java throws me an EOFException and I don't know why.
This is my code:
import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
public class MapaClients implements java.io.Serializable {
private static MapaClients mapa= new MapaClients();
private Map<String,Client> clients= new HashMap<String,Client>();
private MapaClients(){}
public static MapaClients getInstance(){
return mapa;
}
public void afegirMapa(String correu, Client client){
clients.put(correu, client);
}
public Client existeix(String correu){
if(clients.containsKey(correu)){
return(clients.get(correu));
}else{
return(null);
}
}
public void serializableGuardar(){
try {
FileOutputStream fileOut =new FileOutputStream("client.ser");
ObjectOutputStream out = new ObjectOutputStream(fileOut);
out.writeObject(mapa);
out.close();
fileOut.close();
System.out.printf("Serialized data is saved in client.ser");
} catch (IOException i) {
i.printStackTrace();
}
}
public void desserializableCarregar(){
ObjectInputStream in;
try {
FileInputStream fileIn = new FileInputStream("client.ser");
in = new ObjectInputStream(fileIn);
boolean check=true;
while (check) {
try{
mapa = (MapaClients) in.readObject();
} catch(EOFException ex){
in.close();
check=false;
}
}
in.close();
fileIn.close();
} catch (IOException i) {
i.printStackTrace();
} catch (ClassNotFoundException c) {
c.printStackTrace();
}
}
public void actualizar(Client client){
clients.replace(client.getCorreu(), client);
}
}
The problem is here:
in = new ObjectInputStream(fileIn);
This is the exception:
java.io.EOFException
at java.io.ObjectInputStream$PeekInputStream.readFully(Unknown Source)
at java.io.ObjectInputStream$BlockDataInputStream.readShort(Unknown Source)
at java.io.ObjectInputStream.readStreamHeader(Unknown Source)
at java.io.ObjectInputStream.<init>(Unknown Source)
at Proves.MapaClients.desserializableCarregar(MapaClients.java:46)
I hope u can help me and sorry for my english :)
You are trying to initialize the ObjectInputStream
from an empty file.
