Mauro Murari updated HADOOP-3602: --------------------------------- Assignee: (was: Mauro Murari) > DataInputBuffer::getLength returns the end position, not the length > ------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-3602 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-3602 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Chris Douglas > > In DataInputBuffer, a call to reset(byte[] buffer, offset, len) resets the > data read by the buffer. However, when the offset is not zero, getLength > returns the index marking the end of valid data in the buffer and not the > length as specified in the last call to reset. The consequence is that > consumers of DataInputBuffers may inaccurately gauge the length of the input > given them. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
