I'm reading &quot;Java Network Programming&quot; by Hughes, Schoffner and Winslow (good book).<br />
The book was written 1.0 - not a mention about readLine() deprecation.<br />
Question is do I simply use BufferedReader.readLine() wherever I see<br />
DataInputStream.readLine()<wbr />? &nbsp;Is this a no brainer or is there something<br />
to watch out for in network communications that makes this a &quot;maybe&quot;?<br />

I'm reading "Java Network Programming" by Hughes, Schoffner and Winslow (good book).
The book was written 1.0 - not a mention about readLine() deprecation.
Question is do I simply use BufferedReader.readLine() wherever I see
DataInputStream.readLine()?  Is this a no brainer or is there something
to watch out for in network communications that makes this a "maybe"?

readLine() and DataInputStream vs BufferedReader

Java is a platform-independent, object-oriented programming language and run-time environment, designed to have as few implementation dependencies as possible such that developers can write one set of code across all platforms using libraries. Most devices will not run Java natively, and require a run-time component to be installed in order to execute a Java program.
