Ryan Blue commented on AVRO-1799: --------------------------------- Thanks for reviewing Greg! I've updated the test as you suggested and I'll merge this later today unless someone objects. > java: GenericData.toString() mutates underlying ByteBuffer backed data > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: AVRO-1799 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1799 > Project: Avro > Issue Type: Bug > Components: java > Affects Versions: 1.8.0 > Reporter: Greg McNutt > Priority: Critical > > Around line 550, the writeEscapedString() method, used to serialize a byte > array, will alter the underlying ByteBuffer's pointer. Meaning subsequent > uses of a toString()'d avro object will yield different results. > Need to not use a generic decode on a ByteBuffer; either clone the element > (expensive), or iterate over the elements with an external index. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
