Look at the API spec for PrintStream: "Methods in this class never throw I/O exceptions". However, you can use the checkError() method to both flush and see if the stream is still functional. (Note that I haven't tried this in Tomcat, so I don't know if a one-end-closed socket will return false.) > Again, the server continues to write a lot of data -- > 10+ megs after the user cancels. If checkError() doesn't return false (and it's actually fully implemented), then something (a proxy?) must be buffering the traffic between the server and the client. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
