transfer large file using java code in android

+Pie Number of slices to send: Send
I have written java code using socket programming to transfer files between android(aakash tablet) it works fine with files of small size . but for large file it shows :
java.net.SocketException: Connection reset.

Please suggest any change to so, that i can even transfer large file (like introducing buffer(but i do not know how to use that ))

here is code for sending file :


package javaapplication1;

import java.io.DataOutputStream;
import java.io.FileInputStream;
import java.io.OutputStream;
import java.net.Socket;
import java.io.File ;
/**
*
* @author akash
*/
public class Transfer {
public static void fileTransfer(Socket client, File file ,DataOutputStream out) {
try {


System.out.println(file.length());
String length= ""+file.length();
FileInputStream fileInputStream = new FileInputStream(file);
OutputStream socketOutputStream = client.getOutputStream();
long startTime = System.currentTimeMillis();

byte buffer[]= new byte[64] ;
int read;
int readTotal = 0;
out.writeUTF(length);

System.out.println(file.length());
for(int j =(int)file.length();j>0;j-=64) {
read = fileInputStream.read(buffer);
socketOutputStream.write(buffer, 0, read);
readTotal += read;
}


long endTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
System.out.println(readTotal + " bytes written in " + (endTime - startTime) + " ms.");
Thread.sleep(10000);

//socketOutputStream.close();
fileInputStream.close();
} catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println(e);
}
}
}


here is code for receiving the file :

import java.io.FileInputStream;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStream;
import java.io.OutputStream;
import java.net.ServerSocket;
import java.net.Socket;
import java.io.*;

public class Accept {

public void FileAccept(InputStream clientInputStream, String fileName,
DataInputStream in) {

FileOutputStream file;
boolean flag = true;
System.out.print("hi file transfer start in few sec...");

try {
long startTime = System.currentTimeMillis();

file = new FileOutputStream(fileName, true);
System.out.println("file trsnsfer start of file");
String s = in.readUTF();
byte[] buffer = new byte[64];
int read;
int totalRead = 0;

int i = Integer.parseInt(s);
System.out.println(i + " " + s);
for (int j = i; j > 0; j -= 64) {

{
if(j<64){buffer=new byte[j];}
read = clientInputStream.read(buffer);
file.write(buffer);
}
totalRead += read;
}
System.out.println(fileName);
file.flush();
file.close();
long endTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
System.out.println(totalRead + " bytes read in "
+ (endTime - startTime) + " ms.");
} catch (FileNotFoundException f) {
System.out.println("error two " + f);
} catch (IOException e) {
System.out.println(e);
System.exit(0);
}

}
}

thanks in advance.

hi

Try to create your own protocol for example let the data size is 1024 bytes (so your buffer will be : 1024 bytes data size + packet header). Divide your file to packet size and sent them progressively.

Simple communication between 2 devices
ANDROID OTHER DEVICE
<----- REQUEST FILE

SEND INFO ABOUT FILE ---->

-------------------------------------------------------------------- do in loop
<----- REQUEST FIRS AND NEXT PACKETS

SEND FIRST PACKET AND NEXT PACKETS --->

<---- CONFIRM RECEIVE PACKET

PREPARE NEXT PACKET
-------------------------------------------------------------------- end loop


I will resolve very similar problem in my project. I need to send JPG to other none Android device (without operation system), but I have already have implemented our communication protocol, so I think it will be easy to do it for me . The device for the other side is equipment in Bluetooth module and it works on Atmel processor. ;)

thanks .

I tried to create my protocol , but it did not worked . But by adjusting buffer size i make it working now.

Try out the following code:
Here's an example of copying one stream to another that doesn't really care about the size of the data being streamed:

public static void stream(InputStream in, OutputStream out)
throws IOException {
byte[] buf = new byte[1024];
int bytesRead = 0;

try {

while (-1 != (bytesRead = in.read(buf, 0, buf.length))) {
out.write(buf, 0, bytesRead);
}

} catch (IOException e) {
log.error("Error with streaming op: " + e.getMessage());
throw (e);
} finally {
try{
in.close();
out.flush();
out.close();
} catch (Exception e){}//Ignore
}
}
