    <p>I'm still working on my push server! I have successfully implemented encryption using javax.crypto.cipher. This requires I read/write bytes to the socket's stream. I can send and receive just fine. Encryption works. But when there's nothing going over the air, the server throws an OutOfMemoryException. The readBytes function is:</p> <pre><code>public static byte[] readBytes() throws IOException { int len = dis.readInt(); byte[] data = new byte[len]; if (len &gt; 0) { dis.readFully(data); } return data; } </code></pre> <p>The code that calls this is:</p> <pre><code> public String read() { byte[] encrypted,decrypted = null; try { encrypted = readBytes(); if (encrypted.equals(new Byte[] {0})) return ""; if (encrypted.equals(null)) return null; cipher.init(Cipher.DECRYPT_MODE, key); decrypted = cipher.doFinal(encrypted); } catch (Exception e) { // TODO Auto-generated catch block e.printStackTrace(); } String afterEncryption = new String(decrypted); return afterEncryption; } </code></pre> <p>And read() is called in a while-loop:</p> <pre><code>while (true&amp;loggedin&amp;((inputLine=read())!=null)) { </code></pre> <p>And the exception that is thrown is:</p> <pre><code>Exception in thread "ServerThread" java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space at ServerThread.readBytes(ServerThread.java:277) at ServerThread.read(ServerThread.java:245) at ServerThread.run(ServerThread.java:108) </code></pre> <p>Line 277 being the one that declares the byte array. The function that sends the byte array is:</p> <pre><code> public static void sendBytes(byte[] myByteArray, int start, int len) throws IOException { if (len &lt; 0) throw new IllegalArgumentException("Negative length not allowed"); if (start &lt; 0 || start &gt;= myByteArray.length) throw new IndexOutOfBoundsException("Out of bounds: " + start); if (len &gt; 0) { dos.writeInt(len); dos.write(myByteArray, start, len); } } </code></pre> <p>sendBytes is only run when read() stops blocking. That's how the loop is designed to work.</p> <p>If this code looks familiar, its because I found it on stack overflow!</p> <p>The handshake works flawlessly, but as soon as it stops sending things, I get the exception about five seconds later.</p> <p>Thank you for any help you can give me.</p>

    1. COCan you print the value of `len` or put a breakpoint just before declaring `byte[] data`? Apparently it's really huge (in hundreds of millions).

    2. COCan you give more code to work with? I think what's happening is that readBytes is getting called too much.

    3. COAll of the other code is irrelevant. This is where all of the stuff happens. The problem is not with the code the while loop is encapsulating, I think that readInt isn't blocking like it should?

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
