Emmanuel Lecharny resolved DIRSNICKERS-112:
-------------------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
The class DEFString has been fixed to handle UTF-8 strings.
I'm not sure that this is enough, because it supposes that *all* strings are
UTF-8 encoded, which is not something we can say. It depends on the grammar
using this DERString, but I bet it's enough for Kerberos.
> DERUTF8String does not read and write UTF-8

> Key: DIRSNICKERS-112
> URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSNICKERS-112
> Project: Directory ASN1
> Type: Bug
> Components: BER Runtime
> Versions: 0.3.0
> Reporter: Tomi Keinonen
> Assignee: Emmanuel Lecharny
>
> DERUTF8String class does not serialize Strings to byte arrays correctly. Also
> byte arrays seem to be deserialized to Strings incorrectly.
> For example character 'รถ' (U+00F6 Latin Small Letter O With Diaeresis) which
> should be serialized to 0xC3B6 seems to be serialized to 0xF6. DERUTF8String
> uses only one byte for each char. This means only ASCII characters work
> correctly. Each character which requires more than one byte causes invalid
> byte output.
> Class DERUTF8String seems to use incorrectly class DERString:
> protected static byte[] stringToByteArray( String string )
> {
> char[] characters = string.toCharArray();
> byte[] bytes = new byte[ characters.length ];
> for ( int ii = 0; ii < characters.length; ii++ )
> {
> bytes[ ii ] = (byte)characters[ ii ];
> }
> return bytes;
> }
> This method converts parameter first to char array. Chars are UTF-16 and
> cannot be casted to byte directly.
> Conversion should be done using method getBytes with parameter "UTF-8" of
> class String.
