I have a problem executing the following Java code on an MPE/iX 6.0
machine :

import java.io.*;

class MyJavaTest
{
 public static void main(String args[])
 {
  String firstOne = getString("First one: ");
  String secondOne = getString("Second one: ");
  System.out.println("firstOne=" + firstOne);
  System.out.println("secondOne=" + secondOne);
 }

 private static String getString(String prompt)
 {
 BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader
(System.in));
  if (prompt != null)
   System.out.print(prompt);

  String rString = "";
  try
   { rString = in.readLine(); }
  catch (Exception e)
   { rString = ""; }
  return rString;
 }
}

When I run this program, I get the "First one:" prompt as expected. When I
enter some data and the press the return key I don't get the second prompt.
I guess that the program is still in the first getString. When I run this
code on a PC, the program behaves normal. Has anybody seen this before? My
Java version is :

java full version "JDK 1.1.7B:03/20/99-09:03 (MPE Version A.17.03 GT JIT)"
