Low Level SSL read is not working !

Question

Hi,
I can readLine() from a buffered SSL socket without any problems.
But I can't get the last line because the last line does not contain any <CR> or <LF>.
So, when I try to do a low level read from a raw SSL socketstream, I always get "zero bytes available" even though there should be bytes to read.
Please help.
InputStream in2 = serversocket.getInputStream();
while (true) {
     num = in2.available();
     if (num > 0) {
     buffer = new byte[num]; // allocates memory buffer
in2.read(buffer,0,num);
     System.out.write(buffer,0,num);
     System.out.flush();
     try {
               Thread.sleep(500);
          } catch (InterruptedException e) {
                         e.printStackTrace();
What did I do wrong?

I can readLine() from a buffered SSL socket without any problems.
But I can't get the last line because the last line does not contain any <CR> or <LF>.So send it, or don't use readLine().
So, when I try to do a low level read from a raw SSL socketstream, I always get "zero bytes available" even though there should be bytes to read.So don't use available(). It's not guaranteed to return anything other than zero, and in SSL it doesn't.
     num = in2.available();Pointless. Remove this line.
     if (num > 0) {
     buffer = new byte[num]; // allocates memory bufferAllocate a buffer with a fixed size, outside this loop.
in2.read(buffer,0,num);in2.read(buffer);
     System.out.write(buffer,0,num);Correct.
     System.out.flush();Do that outside the loop.
               Thread.sleep(500);Completely pointless and literally a waste of time.
What did I do wrong?Almost everything. Try it with the corrections suggested.
