STREAMING_STATE_TRANSFER: use_default_transport might lead to incorrect state transfer -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JGRP-1339 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JGRP-1339 Project: JGroups Issue Type: Bug Reporter: Bela Ban Assignee: Bela Ban Fix For: 2.12.2, 3.0 If read(byte[] buf, int offset, int len) is invoked on a StateInputStream, we do the following: - stateQueue.take() is called to grab the next message (block if no message is available) - Then we return the byte[] buffer of the message. The number of bytes returned is buffer.length, *not* len ! This has 3 issues: #1 It violates the contract of read(): if we wanted to read len bytes at most, we cannot get more bytes back. E.g. if we wanted to read 500 bytes, but get 1000 back, then that's incorrect #2 If we allocate a buffer of 500 bytes, but the next message has 1000 bytes, we will get an array out of bounds exception #3 Even if this was correct, if we wanted to read 500 bytes, but the next message has 1000 bytes, we'd only read 500 bytes and throw the remainder away ! -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
