Trying to detect end of headers in http request
I can't seem to find a way to see how the headers end, the only reason I need to do this is so that I can use the content-length to let me know when to stop reader from the socket. If there is another way to do this I would love to hear it, lol.
thanks in advance,

{
ServerSocket serverSocket =null;
int port = 8080;

System.exit(1);

// Loop waiting for a request
while (isActive)

String inputLine =null;
// get our content length
int contentLength = 0;
int contentLengthMax = 0;
while ((inputLine = input.readLine()) !=null)
{
String[] headerVar = inputLine.split(":");
if (headerVar.length > 1)

headers.setProperty(headerVar[0].trim(), headerVar[1].trim());

inputTotal.append(inputLine);

contentLengthMax = Integer.parseInt(headers.getProperty("Content-Length"));
System.out.println(contentLength +"/" + contentLengthMax);

// Close the socket
