Need of closing the Socket to complete read at client

Question

Hi all,
I have aproblem of reading a byte array from a socketconnection.
My code is work but there is a small issue.
Basically my problem is there is a need of closing the socket at the server to complete the reading of the byte array at client
following is the server code which write the bytearray.
ServerSocket  serversocket = new ServerSocket(Integer.parseInt(resources.getString("PORT")));
Socket clientSocket = s.getServersocket().accept();
DataOutputStream dt = new DataOutputStream(clientSocket.getOutputStream());
dt.write(getImageasByteArray());     // getImageasByteArray returns a byte array
//clientSocket.close();          // if not close clientSocket reading of the byte array not worksAs I mentioned above if the clientSocket is not closed the reading of the byte not completed at the client.
client code which read the byte array
SocketConnection sock = (SocketConnection) Connector.open("socket://" + hostname);
ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
InputStream inputStream = sock.openInputStream();
int c = 0;
while ((c = inputStream.read()) != -1)
     baos.write(c);
System.out.println("read complete"); // this read complete never execute if not clientSocket is closed at serverI can't close the clientSocket because there are several threads at server some reads incoming commands and some write based on the commands.
so please help me
thank You

Thank You again for answering
my client is a j2me platform and it print this stackrace
my code
DataOutputStream dt = new DataOutputStream(clientSocket.getOutputStream());
dt.write(ImageUtil.getImageasByteArray(img).length);
dt.write(ImageUtil.getImageasByteArray(img));   //send byte array
DataInputStream in = new DataInputStream(sock.openInputStream());    // openInputStream not getinputStream
int length = in.readInt();
System.out.println("read length=" + length);
byte[] arr = new byte[length];  // read size
in.readFully(arr); 
java.lang.NegativeArraySizeException
