------------------------------------
Summary: Issue with character encoding of Success returned from
Login using Thrift Proxy and NodeJS
Key: THRIFT-2363
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-2363
Project: Thrift
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Node.js - Compiler, Node.js - Library
Affects Versions: 0.9.1
Environment: CentOS 6.4, NodeJS 0.10.21, NPM thrift module 0.9.1,
Accumulo 1.5.0
Reporter: Ryan Knowles
Priority: Minor
I recently tried to connect to Accumulo through the Thrift proxy using NodeJS.
I was able to successfully send login information to Accumulo and receive back
a success, but when I tried to use this success to feed into other functions
such as listTables I would receive an Exception.
I traced this down to the AccumuloProxy.js file that was generated from the
proxy.thrift file. In the AccumuloProxy_login_result.prototype.read function if
the ftype == Thrift.Type.STRING then this.success is set to input.readString().
During this readString function the toString is called on the Buffer, but what
is returned has characters that are not correctly encoded. I modified the
AccumuloProxy_login_result.prototype.read to call readBinary instead and return
the Buffer as success. I was then able to pass the Buffer into the other
functions and correctly get a result.
