Akitoshi Yoshida reassigned CXF-6720:
-------------------------------------
Assignee: Akitoshi Yoshida
> AbstractHTTPDestination#WrappedOutputStream.close() calls flush after close
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CXF-6720
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-6720
> Project: CXF
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Core
> Affects Versions: 2.7.18, 3.0.7, 3.1.4
> Environment: IBM Liberty Profile with CXF and JavaMelody, but this is
> mostly a discussion about Servlet/Flushable-spec and flush after close.
> Reporter: John Hestad
> Assignee: Akitoshi Yoshida
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: Closable, Flushable, IBM_JAVA, JavaMelody,
> LibertyProfile, OutputStream, core, flush, flushBuffer, servlet-api
>
> Bug location:
> https://github.com/apache/cxf/blob/master/rt/transports/http/src/main/java/org/apache/cxf/transport/http/AbstractHTTPDestination.java#L806
> ServletResponse.flushBuffer:
> http://grepcode.com/file/repo1.maven.org/maven2/javax.servlet/javax.servlet-api/3.1.0/javax/servlet/ServletResponse.java#ServletResponse.flushBuffer%28%29
> Reading the javadoc of ServletResponse.flushBuffer, Closable and Flushable
> interfaces tells me that calling flushBuffer on a ServletResponse containing
> a closed stream could give an IOException.
> We have had problems with this in Liberty Profile, while using CXF together
> with CXF.
> Background story:
> 1) Javamelody issue: https://github.com/javamelody/javamelody/issues/411
> 2) Old discussion:
> https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/javamelody/kX31sRTFrHE/discussion
> 3) IBM WasDev issue:
> https://developer.ibm.com/answers/questions/244982/why-does-httpoutputstreamflush-when-stream-is-clos/
> To make a short recap:
> 1) Soap-call to the service
> 2) Cxf calls close() -> OutputStream closes
> 3) Cxf calls flushBuffer which hits JavaMelody's ServletResponse-wrapper
> which again calls flush on the OutputStream
> 4) Ibm Liberty Profile throws an IOException telling the stream is closed.
> If we exclude JavaMelody:
> 3) Cxf calls flushBuffer which hits Liberty Profile's ServletResponse-wrapper
> which checks if the stream is already close and returns early.
> Update: Added crossreference to the IBM WasDev issue from the wrong one:
> https://developer.ibm.com/answers/questions/244982/why-does-httpoutputstreamflush-when-stream-is-clos/
