-------------------------------------
Summary: Duplicate copies of InputStreamUtil.java and
DynamicByteArrayOutputStream.java classes in client.net package
Key: DERBY-5786
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-5786
Project: Derby
Issue Type: Task
Reporter: Mohamed Nufail
Assignee: Mohamed Nufail
Priority: Minor
In solving [DERBY-4491|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-4491],
InputStreamUtil.java and DynamicByteArrayOutputStream.java classes which are
present in org.apache.derby.iapi.services.io package was needed for the network
client also. So now there are duplicate copies of those classes in
org.apache.derby.client.net package.
But the client uses only a small part of the functionality those classes
provide. In a discussion in dev list
(http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/db-derby-dev/201205.mbox/%3Cwjo8r4ucgtfv.fsf%40oracle.com%3E)
it was decided to use EncodedInputStream.PublicBufferOutputStream which is
already in the client.net package instead of the duplicated classes. In order
to do this PublicBufferOutputStream will first be made into a stand-alone class.
Doing this would help to reduce the code size and increase code coverage, as
the duplicate classes currently have no code coverage.
