---------------------------------

             Summary: Proton-J and Proton-C transports make inconsistent use of 
return values from methods input and output
                 Key: PROTON-264
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PROTON-264
             Project: Qpid Proton
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: proton-c, proton-j
    Affects Versions: 0.4
            Reporter: Keith Wall
            Assignee: Keith Wall
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 0.5


This defect refers to the transport interface already in the process of being 
deprecated by PROTON-225.  The scope of PROTON-225 has been increased (=noted 
in Jira) to ensure that this defect is not carried forward to the new interface 
and we end up with consistent behaviour.

Currently, in Proton-C pn_transport_output() returns PN_EOS (=-1) to signal 
that the Transport will produce no further output, and  pn_transport_input() 
returns PN_EOS to signal that the Transport will accept no further input.   
However, Proton-J, output always returns the number bytes output (even if 
zero), and input returns the number of bytes accepted (again even if zero).

This difference presents a problem to tests utilising the Proton-JNI binding.   
As a temporary workaround, JNITransport class will changed to hide this 
difference from the caller.
