readLine deprecated

[AcidHawk]

When I use the following I get a warning that readLine is deprecated...

in = socket.getInputStream();
DataInputStream din = new DataInputStream(in);
String serverStatus = din.readLine();

What should I use instead..?

I tried BufferedReader but was told that "The constructor BufferedReader(InputStream) is undefined"

Thanks

I've come up with the following..

DataInputStream in = new DataInputStream(new BufferedInputStream(socket.getInputStream()));
BufferedReader din = new BufferedReader( new InputStreamReader(in));
String serverStatus = din.readLine();

any comments..?

in = new BufferedReader(
	new InputStreamReader(
		sock.getInputStream()));

nextLine = in.readLine();

w3rd..

a reader is for text
an inputstream is for anything

to convert an inputstream into a reader, you must use InputStreamReader

a similar analogue of OutputStreamWriter exists that will turn anything you write() or print() to a Writer (such as PrintWriter) into something suitable for sending down an OutputStream
