[net] available() returns 0 in Unit Test

[Rory Winston <rw...@eircom.net>]

When I was cutting the RC for Commons::Net, the TelnetClientTest repeatedly failed. I tracked this down to the line:

if(is1.available() == 6)

The available() method continually returned 0. When I commented out the available() check, the test passed as expected. I compiled with Java 5. 

The issue is that the test expected the socket's InputStream to return the #bytes queued up (6), whereas it actually returned 0, but it still read the bytes correctly on a read().

Anyone know if this is expected/reasonable behaviour? I havent looked into it yet, but if anyone has any insight, it would be appreciated.

Cheers
Rory
