In what way does it not work? Do you not get any data? Do you get the
wrong data? Does your program block at a point which you do not
understand?

Probably more to the point, are you sure you are sending exactly the
same data as you did with netcat? netcat running with stdin a terminal
sends data line-by-line, and includes the newline in the data that it
sends. You didn't send a newline in your example.
