Jake Farrell closed THRIFT-1727. -------------------------------- Resolution: Fixed THRIFT-1766 resolved this, closing > Ruby-1.9: data loss: "binary" fields are re-encoded > --------------------------------------------------- > > Key: THRIFT-1727 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-1727 > Project: Thrift > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: Ruby - Library > Affects Versions: 0.9 > Environment: JRuby 1.6.8 using "--1.9" command line parameter. > Reporter: XB > > When setting a binary field of a Thrift object with some binary data (e.g. a > string whose encoding is "ASCII-8BIT") and then serializing this object, the > binary data is re-encoded. That is, it is encoded as if it were not a > sequence of bytes but a sequence of characters, encoded using the ISO-8859-1 > encoding. This assumed ISO-8859-1 sequence of characters is then converted > into UTF-8 (by BinaryProtocol or CompactProtocol). This basically means that > all bytes whose values are between 0x80 (inclusive) and 0x100 (exclusive) are > converted into multi-byte sequences. This leads to data corruption. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1.5#6160)
