getOutputStream() before getInputStream()

[hildegarbage]

I have a simple Client-server program and I couldnt get the communication to work until I found that I had tried to create the inputstream before the outputstream. Why does this not work?

ObjectInputStream in = new ObjectInputStream(
serverSocket.getInputStream());

ObjectOutputStream out = new ObjectOutputStream(
serverSocket.getOutputStream());

(This order does not work.)

Difficult to know without the server code, but I guess you have a case like the one described here
