    Default How to read from GUI input?

    Hi guys, I hope this one will be easy for you

    I have a client connected to a server. How can I loop the client to wait until a user presses a Jbutton?
    For example:
    server waits for input=>client clicks a button => sends data to server =>server replies =>client receives data and does something=>client continues to wait for a button click=>server waits for input

    I know if I use
    BufferedReader stdin = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in) 
    message = stdin.readLine()
    ;
    will wait for keyboard input. What do i do for a button input?
    Thank You
