[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (JGRP-2177) (7.0.z) TYPE_STRING does not handle unicode

Bartosz Spyrko-Śmietanko created JGRP-2177: ---------------------------------------------- Summary: (7.0.z) TYPE_STRING does not handle unicode Key: JGRP-2177 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JGRP-2177 Project: JGroups Issue Type: Bug Reporter: Bartosz Spyrko-Śmietanko Assignee: Bela Ban Priority: Minor Fix For: 3.6.11, 4.0 In several places throughout the org.jgroups.util.Util class, it is assumed that Strings are one byte per character. For example, see objectToByteBuffer lines 561-567: https://github.com/belaban/JGroups/blob/master/src/org/jgroups/util/Util.... {code:java} case TYPE_STRING: String str=(String)obj; int len=str.length(); ByteBuffer retval=ByteBuffer.allocate(Global.BYTE_SIZE + len).put(TYPE_STRING); for(int i=0; i < len; i++) retval.put((byte)str.charAt(i)); return retval.array(); {code} This code will incorrectly encode any String with non ASCII encoding. There are several options to fix. You could use str.getBytes(StandardCharsets.UTF_8) to get a proper byte encoding, or you could use the existing TYPE_SERIALIZABLE code path. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.2.3#72005)
