[jboss-remoting-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Created: (JBREM-1141) HTTPUnMarshaller should test for "non-text" content-type instead of "binary" content-type

HTTPUnMarshaller should test for "non-text" content-type instead of "binary" content-type ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBREM-1141 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBREM-1141 Project: JBoss Remoting Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public (Everyone can see) Affects Versions: 2.2.3, 2.5.1 (Flounder) Reporter: Ron Sigal Assignee: Ron Sigal Fix For: 2.5.2 (Flounder), 2.2.3.SP1 As an efficiency measure, org.jboss.marshal.http.HTTPUnMarshaller.read() incorporates special handling for strings to avoid serialization. However, there is a flaw in the logic. HTTPUnMarshaller.read() calls isBinaryData() and calls super.read() if the return value is true. If the return value is false, then it processes the input as String data. Originally, this distinction worked because the only two types recognized were org.jboss.remoting..transport.web.WebUtil.HTML ("text/html") and WebUtil.BINARY ("application/octet-stream"). However, JBREM-653 "allow user to set content-type for http responses" allows the introduction of other content types. Instead of testing for "application/octet-stream", HTTPUnMarshaller.read() should treat any content type that starts "text" as a String, and it should treat anything else as an object. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
