"flush on outputstream will do nothing"

799873Oct 2 2010 — edited Oct 5 2010
Hello,



as stated in the api: http://download.oracle.com/javase/1.4.2/docs/api/java/io/OutputStream.html#flush()
the method flush does nothing on outputstream, but what does this exactly means?

if i do socket.getOutputStream().flush(), does that means it will do nothing, so i can delete it?


thanks in advance
