The conclusolory statement that "its not a problem" is not helpful. Showing what would be sent is. The real confusion comes from bad declarations ; other issues comes from failed resolution. This former can be pom tracing hell ; the latter is interpreting constraint satisfaction problem errors. Both get better with more precise versions :) But that's just me saying that. > TarUtils.formatLongOctalOrBinaryBytes never uses result of formatLongBinary > --------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: COMPRESS-411 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COMPRESS-411 > Project: Commons Compress > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Archivers > Affects Versions: 1.14 > Reporter: Simon Spero > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 1.15 > > > if the length < 9, formatLongBinary is executed, then overwritten by the > results of formatBigIntegerBinary. > If the results are not ignored, a unit test would fail. > Also, do the binary hacks need to support negative numbers? -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
