I am a newbie to java and trying to compile this piece of code. But I
am getting an error on line 15...

import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;
import java.net.*;
import java.net.InetAddress;

public class Client {
    public static void main (String[] args) throws IOException {
        Socket mysocket = null;
        PrintWriter out = null;
        BufferedReader in = null;

        try {
            InetAddress ip = InetAddress.getLocalHost() ;
            Integer port = 9990;
            mysocket = new Socket(ip,port); //LINE 15
            out = new PrintWriter(mysocket.getOutputStream(),true);
            in = new BufferedReader(new
InputStreamReader(mysocket.getInputStream()));

        }
        catch (UnknownHostException e) {
            System.out.println ("Caught exception");
        }
        BufferedReader stdIn = new BufferedReader(
               new InputStreamReader(System.in));

        String userInput;

        while ((userInput = stdIn.readLine()) != null) {
                out.println(userInput);
                System.out.println("echo: " + in.readLine());
        }

        out.close();
        in.close();
        stdIn.close();
        mysocket.close();
    }
}

Any suggestions.
Thanks in advance.
