------------------------------
Summary: ReaderInputStream enter infinite loop for too small
buffer sizes
Key: IO-716
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IO-716
Project: Commons IO
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Streams/Writers
Affects Versions: 2.8.0
Reporter: Marcono1234
{{org.apache.commons.io.input.ReaderInputStream}} enters an invalid loop when
it was constructed with a too small buffer size (0 or 1) and one of its reading
methods is called.
Example:
{code}
int bufferSize = 1;
try (InputStream in = new ReaderInputStream(new StringReader("\uD800"),
StandardCharsets.UTF_8, bufferSize)) {
in.read();
}
{code}
This could be solved by making sure that the buffer size is always >= 1. This
should solve this issue because as far as I know all charsets only report
{{UNDERFLOW}} without encoding any chars if the char is a surrogate.
However, the saner solution might be to increase the buffer when {{UNDERFLOW}}
is encountered and {{encoderIn}} has not changed.
----
Similarly for sanety it would be good to throw an {{AssertionError}} (or
increase the size of {{encoderOut}}) if {{OVERFLOW}} is returned. I don't think
there are any encodings which require more than 128 bytes (used by
{{ReaderInputStream}} for the output buffer) for encoding a single char or
flushing, but would be good to at least handle that case in a saner way than
entering an infinite loop anyways.
