Hi folks,
I'm seeing some really odd behavior with serializers, and wanted to see if
anyone had seen this before (or better yet) knows what's causing this. =)
PROBLEM:
If I set an XML, HTML, or Text serializer's encoding to ASCII, I end up
losing the tail end of my output (roughly 1-1000 characters). I think it
has to do with the buffered output stream not being properly closed/flushed,
but I'm not sure.
ENVIRONMENT:
Cocoon 2.0.2 running on JBoss 2.4.5 with Tomcat 4.0.3. Win2k.
WORKAROUNDS:
I can make this problem go away by doing either of the following:
1. Change the encoding to UTF-8 or ISO-8859-1.
2. Change the buffer-size to 1 (tried with values from 1-2048;
was still seeing the problem with values as low as 10).
REPRODUCING THE BUG:
>From what I'm seeing, you can reproduce this bug by having a reasonably
large buffer (larger than 10 bytes) and switching any TextSerializer-based
serializer's encoding to ASCII. Here's a sample from my sitemap:
<map:serializer name="css" mime-type="text/css"
logger="sitemap.serializer.css"
src="org.apache.cocoon.serialization.TextSerializer"
pool-max="64" pool-min="16" pool-grow="4">
<buffer-size>2048</buffer-size>
<encoding>ASCII</encoding>
</map:serializer>
Any thoughts, suggestions, ideas, etc. would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Harry
PS The main reason this comes up is for a dynamic css pipeline, which I'd
like to be character set agnostic (hence, the ASCII encoding). I only
tested it with the HTML and XML serializer to make sure it wasn't something
specific to my css pipeline.
