Sebb resolved IO-335.
---------------------
Resolution: Fixed
Fix Version/s: 2.4
> Tailer#readLines - incorrect CR handling
> ----------------------------------------
>
> Key: IO-335
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IO-335
> Project: Commons IO
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Sebb
> Assignee: Sebb
> Fix For: 2.4
>
>
> The readLines method checks for CR. If found, it is not stored immediately,
> but a flag is set.
> If the next char is an LF, the buffer is passed to the listener without the
> CR.
> As soon as the next non-LF (and non-CR) character is received, the saved CR
> is written to the buffer.
> The net result is that CR before LF migrates to the start of the next
> non-empty line, and repeated CRs are collapsed. This is clearly wrong.
> The original code (before IO-274) used RandomAccessFile#readLine() which
> returns on CR, LF or CRLF.
> It looks as though the intention was to retain this behaviour whilst not
> blocking.
