Hi, The message as reported by the mosquitto_sub has a 0x0a appended to its end; regardless of whether the publication was retained or otherwise. Is this a known behavior ?
Note the size of the file subMessage is greater by 1 byte as compared with the file pubMessage. Also, I have the same observation with the broker at m2m.eclipse.org. On the subscriber side, Wireshark seems to show the exact string that was published. user@host:~$ mosquitto_pub -h test.mosquitto.org -r -t a/b/c -f pubMessage user@host:~$ ls -la *Message -rw-rw-r-- 1 nsubrahm nsubrahm 5 Jul 7 08:50 pubMessage -rw-rw-r-- 1 nsubrahm nsubrahm 6 Jul 7 08:52 subMessage The subscription is done in another window after the publisher has published the message. mosquitto_sub -h test.mosquitto.org -t a/b/c > subMessage ನಾಗೇಶ್
