------------------------------------
Summary: proton-j: Message.decode doesn't validate all data types?
Key: PROTON-776
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PROTON-776
Project: Qpid Proton
Issue Type: Bug
Components: proton-j
Affects Versions: 0.8
Reporter: Dominic Evans
PROTON-616 attempted to enfore that message annotation keys were of the Symbol
type. However, it seems to be possible to send a map with strings keys for the
message annotations section (e.g., via the ruby client) and message.decode will
accept this.
It is only when you try to use the MessageAnnotations map that you get a
`java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.String incompatible with
org.apache.qpid.proton.amqp.Symbol` exception because the underlying map isn't
compatible with what the generics suggest.
Isn't this something that we should catch at decode time?
