             Summary: Communication crash when using binary/compact protocol 
and zlib transport
                 Key: THRIFT-4626
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-4626
             Project: Thrift
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Go - Library
    Affects Versions: 0.11.0
         Environment: Ubuntu 18.04

Go 1.10.1
            Reporter: Vyacheslav Kulakov


Reading a request on the server side or reading a response on the client side 
always fail with the "Invalid data length" error when using the binary/compact 
protocol and the zlib transport, which wraps the framed transport.

In my project, I use the following code on the server side (only for testing):
```
...
processor := flume.NewThriftSourceProtocolProcessor(protocol)

serverTransport, _ := thrift.NewTServerSocketTimeout(address, timeout)

protocolFactory := thrift.NewTBinaryProtocolFactoryDefault()
transportFactory := 
thrift.NewTFramedTransportFactory(thrift.NewTTransportFactory())
transportFactory = thrift.NewTZlibTransportFactoryWithFactory(level, 
transportFactory)

server := thrift.NewTSimpleServer4(
        processor,
        serverTransport,
        transportFactory,
        protocolFactory,
)
...
```
and following code on the client side:
````
...
factory := thrift.NewTBinaryProtocolFactoryDefault()
transport := thrift.TTransport(thrift.NewTFramedTransport(socket))
transport, err = thrift.NewTZlibTransport(transport, compressionLevel)
if err != nil {
        return err
}

err = transport.Open()
if err != nil {
        return err
}

client := flume.NewThriftSourceProtocolClient(
        thrift.NewTStandardClient(
                factory.GetProtocol(transport),
                factory.GetProtocol(transport),
        ),
)
...
````
When I send data from the client to the server I always get the "EOF" error on 
the client and the "Invalid data length" error on the server. If I use the 
compact protocol the errors stay at their places. 

I investigated Go library code and found a reason of that errors: the protocol 
invoke the RemainingBytes method on the zlib transport and it always return 
zero because all bytes were already read from a frame and were stored in a 
decompressor buffer. But we can't access to this buffer to obtain correct 
number of remaining bytes. So this combination of protocols and transports 
can't work together at all.
