aaron pieper updated CXF-3068:
------------------------------
Attachment: cxf-3068-kludge-patch.txt
This is a patch which works around the immediate problem by returning "-1"
instead of "0" for the edge case where MimeBodyPartInputStream reads a fragment
of a MIME boundary. This is a "band-aid" and will not fix any of the underlying
problems. MimeBodyPartInputStream's underlying "boundary-reading logic" is the
real culprit, and this patch will probably just cause other other bugs until
that underlying logic is fixed.
I'm not recommending this patch be applied to the CXF baseline, but if anyone
wants a quick work-around, this patch might work for you.

> I'm having a problem with some MTOM attachments. It started when I upgraded
> from CXF 2.2.2 to CXF 2.2.3. The bug is that after calling a service which
> returned an MTOM attachment, when I try to parse the attachment, I sometimes
> get an error:
> java.io.IOException: Underlying input stream returned zero bytes
> at sun.nio.cs.StreamDecoder.readBytes(StreamDecoder.java:268)
> at sun.nio.cs.StreamDecoder.implRead(StreamDecoder.java:306)

> The error only happens for some attachments - about 25% of them. It's a
> seemingly arbitrary 25% - it's not like, the biggest 25% or the ones that
> have special characters. I was able to track this down to
> MimeBodyPartInputStream. MimeBodypartInputStream has some logic in
> processBuffer for reading the boundary. It goes like this:
> while ((boundaryIndex < boundary.length) && (value ==
> boundary[boundaryIndex])) { if (!hasData(buffer, initialI, i + 1, off, len))
> {
> return initialI - off;
> }
> value = buffer[++i];
> boundaryIndex++;
> }
> So, basically, when MimeBodyPartInputStream finds the start of a boundary, it
> reads from the stream until either there's no more characters to read, or
> until it read the entire boundary. The problem with this logic is that it
> assumes the entire boundary will be read in the same call to the underlying
> InputStream. This assumption isn't always true. Specifically, when I'm
> fetching an attachment in my application, this MimeBodyPartInputStream is
> backed by an HttpURLConnection.HttpInputStream. This HttpInputStream
> sometimes fetches as few as 24 characters, I guess that's just how the
> HttpInputStream works. But if these 24 characters happen to fall on one of
> these MIME boundaries, it can cause problems.
> One problem, which I'm running into here, is that the
> MimeBodyPartInputStream's read(byte,int,int) method returns 0, since the only
> bytes that were read were parts of the MIME boundary. In returning 0, it
> breaks InputStream's contract which says states that the read method will
> only ever return a positive integer (if some bytes were read) or -1 (if no
> bytes were read.) There are probably other possible problems - it seems like
> it's possible MimeBodyPartInputStream might misunderstand whether or not it's
> hit a boundary in some cases. I haven't run into that problem though.
