[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (JGRP-2289) FRAG4: handle ObjectMessage whose size() method is incorrect

FRAG4: handle ObjectMessage whose size() method is incorrect ------------------------------------------------------------ Key: JGRP-2289 URL: https://issues.redhat.com/browse/JGRP-2289 Project: JGroups Issue Type: Enhancement Reporter: Bela Ban Assignee: Bela Ban Priority: Major Fix For: 5.1 When an ObjectMessage has a {{SizeStreamable}} object whose size() returns more bytes than are actually written, {{FRAG4}} will block on reading of the last fragment. Example: size() returns 27 bytes (LENGTH), but we only write 20 bytes, then {{readFully()}} (used to read the fragments) will throw an exception (EOF, IIRC). To fix this, {{FragmentedMessage.writeTo()}} could do the following: * Check if DataOutput is of type ByteArrayDataOutputStream. This is almost always the case as this is used on the bundler base class. If not -> use the current code path * Remember the current position * Write LENGTH bytes (27 in the example above) * Call obj.writeTo(out) * If the current position is *not* equal to the remembered position + LENGTH: ** Position the output stream back to the remembered position and write the correct length ACTUAL bytes (20) as an int Obviously, this only works for DataOutput implementations that support position(), but with most bundlers using ByteArrayDataOutputStream, this should be the case most of the time.
