Summary: IBM DFDL Crosstester always reports left over ata
Key: DAFFODIL-2517
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DAFFODIL-2517
Project: Daffodil
Issue Type: Bug
Components: TDML Runner
Affects Versions: 3.1.0
Reporter: Steve Lawrence
Assignee: Steve Lawrence
We deprecated and removed isAtEnd from use in the TDML Runner, and replaced it
with a check that the final bit position of a parse/unparse matched the total
length. If not, it means there was left over data.
However, the IBM DFDL implementation is not able to report final parse/unparse
bitPosition, and so it always returns -1. This special value should disable
left over data checking, but it does not. Since -1 is less than the the
expected number of bits, tests fail complaining about left over data. We need
to add back this special meaning of -1 to the TDML Runner.
