I currently have the following code:

public static void main(String[] args)
{
   InputStreamReader isr = new InputStreamReader( System.in );
   BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader( isr );

   String input = null;

   while ( true )
   {
       System.out.print( "Command: ");

       try
       {
           br.readLine();
       }
       catch ( IOException e)
       {}
   }
}

It compiles fine and makes complete logical sense to me. However, the
program seemingly skips over the System.out.print command and goes
right to waiting for input. This will continue to happen until the
loop is exited and then all of the "buffered" System.out.print
statements seem to just spit out.

Sample input looks something like:

Input1
Input2
Input3
<loop is exited here>
Command: Command: Command:

Can anyone explain this strange behavior? Thanks.
