FlowControl: credits are unserialized incorrectly ------------------------------------------------- Key: JGRP-2071 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JGRP-2071 Project: JGroups Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 3.6.9 Reporter: Bela Ban Assignee: Bela Ban Fix For: 3.6.10 This is a regression in 3.6.9 (3.6.8 is fine). In {{FlowControl.sendCredits()}} and {{.sendCreditRequest()}}, we use Util.objectToBuffer() to serialize the credits, but on the receiver side we use Bits.readLong(), which interprets the {{TYPE_LONG}} sent as first byte as being part of the long. The reason is an imcomplete backport of from the master branch. The problem does not exist on master. The faulty commit is {{ac5f507}} on the 3.6 branch
