XMLByteStreamCompiler hard-coded limits of 0xffff Strings prevents large XML 
documents from being handled in Cocoon

                 Key: COCOON-2158
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COCOON-2158
             Project: Cocoon
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: * Cocoon Core
    Affects Versions: 2.1.10, 2.1.9, 2.1.8, 2.1.7, 2.1.6, 2.1.11, 2.1.12-dev 
(Current SVN)
            Reporter: Eric Meyer
            Priority: Critical


The hard-coded limits in XMLByteStreamCompiler prevent Cocoon from handling 
large XML documents.

See the methods writeString and writeAttributes for the hard coded arbitrary 
maximums:

if (i > 0xFFFF) throw new SAXException("Index too large");

if (attributes > 0xFFFF) throw new SAXException("Too many attributes");

Additionally, the hand-coded bit manipulation is pretty difficult to change in 
order to work around this.

I am attaching a patch for 2.1.11 that updates the existing JUnit test case to 
reproduce the problem, as well as a fix to the problem that uses the 
DataInputStream and DataOutputStream for the low-level bit manipulation.
