can't read in a socket

hi, everyone

i launched netcat with 'nc -lp 1255' on my computer and then tried to execute the following code:

publicstaticvoid main(String [] args){

try{

Socket s =new Socket("127.0.0.1", 1255);

BufferedReader reader =new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(s.getInputStream()));

PrintWriter writer =new PrintWriter(new OutputStreamWriter(s.getOutputStream()));

writer.println("test");

writer.flush();

System.out.println(reader.readLine());

}catch (Exception e){ e.printStackTrace();}

}

I saw the "test" message appear in the netcat shell, but neither the readLine() read anything, nor an exception was thrown

I don't understand why

Any help would be greatly appreciated !
