Problem with JBoss serializing of dynamic proxies
-------------------------------------------------
Key: JBSER-117
URL:
https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBSER-117
Project: JBoss Serialization
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 1.0.3 GA
Reporter: Maksym Ivanchenko
Assignee: Clebert Suconic
When we try to serialize a proxy that contains some child entity which points to proxy
itself the following exception occurs:
org.jboss.serial.exception.SerializationException: Object reference 1 was not found
Simple test case for problem reproducing:
import java.io.Serializable;
import java.lang.reflect.InvocationHandler;
import java.lang.reflect.Method;
import java.lang.reflect.Proxy;
import org.jboss.serial.io.JBossObjectOutputStream;
import org.junit.Test;
public class StandaloneProxySerializationTest {
@Test
public void testSerialization() throws Exception {
ISampleEntity entity = new SampleEntityImpl();
Class<?>[] interfaces = new Class<?>[] {ISampleEntity.class};
SampleEntityInvocationHandler handler = new
SampleEntityInvocationHandler(entity);
ISampleEntity proxy = (ISampleEntity)
Proxy.newProxyInstance(Thread.currentThread()
.getContextClassLoader(), interfaces, handler);
ISampleEntity childEntity = new SampleEntityImpl();
proxy.setChild(childEntity);
childEntity.setParent(proxy);
JBossObjectOutputStream jbossSerializer = new JBossObjectOutputStream(null);
jbossSerializer.smartClone(proxy);
}
private static interface ISampleEntity {
public ISampleEntity getParent();
public void setParent(ISampleEntity parent);
public ISampleEntity getChild();
public void setChild(ISampleEntity child);
}
private static class SampleEntityImpl implements ISampleEntity, Serializable {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
private ISampleEntity parent;
private ISampleEntity child;
@Override
public ISampleEntity getParent() {
return parent;
}
@Override
public void setParent(ISampleEntity parent) {
this.parent = parent;
}
@Override
public ISampleEntity getChild() {
return child;
}
@Override
public void setChild(ISampleEntity child) {
this.child = child;
}
}
private static class SampleEntityInvocationHandler implements InvocationHandler,
Serializable {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
private ISampleEntity entity;
public SampleEntityInvocationHandler(ISampleEntity entity) {
this.entity = entity;
}
@Override
public Object invoke(Object proxy, Method method, Object[] args) throws Throwable
{
return method.invoke(entity, args);
}
}
}
Upon ivestigating this issue we found that the problem is in ProxyPersister.readData()
method. It reads the handler, the proxy class, constructs a proxy and only then puts it to
cache. But if a proxy data contains proxy itself then it tries to find it by reference
(which is not in cache yet, because the handler is still being read). So it throws
"Object reference not found" exception.
We worked around this problem by introducing an InvocationHandler wrapper in
ProxyPersister:
