Socket 的方法 getOutputStream() 和 getInputStream()

一个非常简单的客户端程序：

import java.io.*;
import java.net.*;

public class DailyAdviceClient
{
    public void go() {
        try {
            Socket s = new Socket("127.0.0.1", 5000);
            InputStreamReader streamReader = new InputStreamReader(s.getInputStream()); 
            BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(streamReader);

            String advice = reader.readLine();
            System.out.println("Today you should: " + advice);
            reader.close();
        }
        catch (IOException ex)
        {
            ex.printStackTrace();
        }
    }

    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        DailyAdviceClient client = new DailyAdviceClient();
        client.go();
    }
}

对于 DailyAdviceClient 客户端来说，它是要经过 Socket 从地址为 127.0.0.1.5000 的服务器上取入数据，所以用 socket.getInputStream() 。
一个非常简单的服务器程序：

import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.PrintWriter;
import java.net.ServerSocket;
import java.net.Socket;

public class AdviceServer {
    String[] adviceList = {"Take smaller bites", "Go for the tight jeans. No they do NOT make you look fat",
            "One word: inappropriate", "Just for today, be honest.  Tell your boss what you *really* think", 
            "You might want to rethink that haircut"};
    public void go() {
        try {
            ServerSocket serverSocket = new ServerSocket(4200);

            while(true) {

            Socket socket = serverSocket.accept();

            PrintWriter printWriter = new PrintWriter(socket.getOutputStream());

            String advice = getAdvice();

            printWriter.println(advice);

            printWriter.close();

            System.out.println(advice);
            }

        } catch (IOException e) {
            // TODO: handle exception
            e.printStackTrace();
        }

    }
    private String getAdvice() {
        int random = (int) (Math.random() * adviceList.length);
        return adviceList[random];
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        AdviceServer adviceServer = new AdviceServer();
        adviceServer.go();
    }
}

对于 AdviceServer 服务器应用来说，它要通过 socket 向绑定 4200 端口的客服端传出去数据，所以用 socket.getOutputStream()。

总之，看这个用 socket 的类，它是通过 socket 取入数据还是传出数据，取入数据就用 getInputStream() ,传出数据就用 getOutputStream() .
