Xerces livelocks while reading external DTD if socket closes prematurely
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: XERCESC-1968
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XERCESC-1968
Project: Xerces-C++
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Utilities
Affects Versions: 3.0.1, 3.1.1
Environment: Windows 7 64bit, VS 2008 SP1, distributed and self-built
binaries
Reporter: Charlie Lawrence
When loading an external DTD and if the socket on the other end closes before
any data is read, xerces can get into a live-lock situation.
If the OS call "recv" returns 0, which it can, the loop in
BinHTTPInputStreamCommon::sendRequest will spin forever.
The attached contains an example and sample content which demonstrates the
issue.
