Readig live feed through socket 1

[manirana007]

Hi,

I am trying to read data from a port on my local machine which is fed live data through sportsticker.com. I have a connection already established between my local machine and sportsticker.com. A port on my local machine is listening to the data and I am trying to read this data from my Java program. How do we read continuous data from a port. I am able to create a socket connection to my localhost on the particular port, but am not able to read the data off of the port. Any help with this would be really appreciated. Thank you.

Well, this is more a Java question than J2EE, but this can help.

Cheers,
Dian
