>JServConnection
>Confidential: no
>Severity: serious
>Priority: medium
>Responsible: jserv
>State: open
>Class: sw-bug

apache
>Release: 1.3.1
>Environment:
NT4SP3, microsoft java sdk 3.0
>Description:
The inner classes JServInputStream and JServOutputStream access the private
members "in" and "out", respectively, of JServConnection. This is caught by
Microsoft's jview in java sdk 3.0.
This bug manifests itself as not getting any output returned from the servlet
and getting an illegal access exception.
>How-To-Repeat:
Run jserv on NT with Microsoft's Java SDK v3.0 (see www.microsoft.com/java for
download, I recommend using the separate .exe downloads and not trying to use
their brain-damaged internet install wizard)
>Fix:
my fix was to add private "in" and "out" members to JServInputStream and
JServOutputStream, respectively, and to initialize these in the constructor,
e.g.,
public JServInputStream(InputStream in) {
available = getContentLength();
this.in = in;
}
a similar change is made for JServOutputStream, as well as changing the calls
to the constructors to provide the "in" and "out" arguments.
