Francesco Mari commented on OAK-2498: ------------------------------------- I aligned the segment header in r1763183. Moreover, in r1763184 I squeezed out three bytes out of every record from the record table. > Root record references provide too little context for parsing a segment > ----------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: OAK-2498 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OAK-2498 > Project: Jackrabbit Oak > Issue Type: Bug > Components: segment-tar > Reporter: Michael Dürig > Assignee: Francesco Mari > Labels: tools > Fix For: Segment Tar 0.0.14 > > > According to the [documentation | > http://jackrabbit.apache.org/oak/docs/nodestore/segmentmk.html] the root > record references in a segment header provide enough context for parsing all > records within this segment without any external information. > Turns out this is not true: if a root record reference turns e.g. to a list > record. The items in that list are record ids of unknown type. So even though > those records might live in the same segment, we can't parse them as we don't > know their type. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
