--------------------------------------------------------------------- View the issue: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/xdoclet/browse/XDT-1388 Here is an overview of the issue: --------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: XDT-1388 Summary: Invalid files left behind after failed build process Type: Bug Status: Open Priority: Major Original Estimate: Unknown Time Spent: Unknown Remaining: Unknown Project: XDoclet Versions: 1.2.3 Assignee: xdoclet-devel (Use for new issues) Reporter: Darryl Miles Created: Sat, 7 May 2005 12:35 AM Updated: Sat, 7 May 2005 12:35 AM Description: I think that XDoclet during its building of output files is truncating the destination file and writing new data directly into it, instead of generateing the new file as a tmp file in the same dir first then renaming to overwrite. If an error occurs during the writing process XDoclet seems to just abort where it is and leave behind a half generated descriptor file. Bad generation sequence for output.xml: Open output.xml with O_TRUNC Read source files writing directly to output.xml Close output.xml Good generation sequence for output.xml: Unlink output.xml.tmp (just in case) Open output.xml.tmp with O_TRUNC|O_EXCL (any securly generated tmpfile in same dir will do) Read source files writing directly to output.xml Close output.xml.tmp Rename output.xml.tmp to output.xml --------------------------------------------------------------------- JIRA INFORMATION: This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
