Hi, The Bug Reporting System dosn't seem to be working so hope you don't mind me logging it this way. There appears to be a bug in the File Upload fucntionality of Struts 1.0 Final Release. After uploading a file and doing a binary compare of the original file and the one uploaded, the files are different. Some characters in the uploaded file have been replaced with a newline ('\n') character. >From the code, I deduced that the problem was due to the fact that MultipartIterator::createLocalFile was calling inputStream.readLine(lineBuffer, 0, MAX_LINE_SIZE) and assuming that a newline character was always found. This is not the case if you have filled your buffer to MAX_LINE_SIZE without finding a newline. Because of this assumption, a newline character was always being added. However, this didn't explain why the original character was being replaced by a newline. That problem lies in BufferedMultipartInputStream::readLine, because if no newline character is found it reads one extra character from the stream and does nothing with it. I've made the changes which fix this problem and tested it briefly. I have included the original function followed by the modified one below for your approval. Original: public int readLine(byte[] b, int offset, int length) throws IOException { int count = 0; int read = read(); if (read == -1) { return -1; } while ((read != -1) && (count < length)) { if (read == '\n') break; b[offset] = (byte) read; count++; offset++; read = read(); } return count; } Modified: public int readLine(byte[] b, int offset, int length) throws IOException { int count = 0; int read = read(); if (read == -1) { return -1; } while ((read != -1) && (count < length)) { if (read == '\n') break; b[offset] = (byte) read; count++; offset++; if (count < length) read = read(); } return count; } Original: protected File createLocalFile() throws IOException { File tempFile = File.createTempFile("strts", null, new File(tempDir)); BufferedOutputStream fos = new BufferedOutputStream(new FileOutputStream(tempFile), diskBufferSize); byte[] lineBuffer = new byte[MAX_LINE_SIZE]; int bytesRead = inputStream.readLine(lineBuffer, 0, MAX_LINE_SIZE); boolean cutCarriage = false; boolean cutNewline = false; try { while ((bytesRead != -1) && (!equals(lineBuffer, 0, boundaryBytes.length, boundaryBytes))) { if (cutCarriage) { fos.write('\r'); } if (cutNewline) { fos.write('\n'); } cutCarriage = false; if (bytesRead > 0) { if (lineBuffer[bytesRead-1] == '\r') { bytesRead--; cutCarriage = true; } } cutNewline = true; fos.write(lineBuffer, 0, bytesRead); bytesRead = inputStream.readLine(lineBuffer, 0, MAX_LINE_SIZE); } } catch (IOException ioe) { fos.close(); tempFile.delete(); throw ioe; } fos.flush(); fos.close(); return tempFile; } Modifed: protected File createLocalFile() throws IOException { File tempFile = File.createTempFile("strts", null, new File(tempDir)); BufferedOutputStream fos = new BufferedOutputStream(new FileOutputStream(tempFile), diskBufferSize); byte[] lineBuffer = new byte[MAX_LINE_SIZE]; int bytesRead = inputStream.readLine(lineBuffer, 0, MAX_LINE_SIZE); boolean cutCarriage = false; boolean cutNewline = false; try { while ((bytesRead != -1) && (!equals(lineBuffer, 0, boundaryBytes.length, boundaryBytes))) { if (cutCarriage) { fos.write('\r'); cutCarriage = false; } if (cutNewline) { fos.write('\n'); cutNewline = false; } if (bytesRead > 0) { if (lineBuffer[bytesRead - 1] == '\r') { cutCarriage = true; fos.write(lineBuffer, 0, bytesRead - 1); } else fos.write(lineBuffer, 0, bytesRead); } if (bytesRead < MAX_LINE_SIZE) cutNewline = true; bytesRead = inputStream.readLine(lineBuffer, 0, MAX_LINE_SIZE); } } catch (IOException ioe) { fos.close(); tempFile.delete(); throw ioe; } fos.flush(); fos.close(); return tempFile; } Rgds Mason Blackwood
