[jira] [Commented] (QPID-6545) malformed cyrillic strings that passed as TextMessage's property

["Rob Godfrey (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-6545?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14545678#comment-14545678 ] 

Rob Godfrey commented on QPID-6545:
-----------------------------------

Apologies - it looks like the code in the Java client was never updated to reflect the change between AMQP v0.9 where so-called "short strings" were merely defined as up to 255 octets of data, and AMQP v0-9-1 where short strings are (very subtly, and not in the formal type definition section) defined as holding UTF-8 data.  This will affect strings in the properties but not in the message body which carries the text encoding separately.

As a short term workaround the following might work:

Convert your String into a {{byte[]}} using {{value.getBytes("UTF-8")}}
create a {{char[]}} of the same size as the resultant {{byte[]}} and then copy the data with a simple cast on each element:

{code}
for(int i = 0; i < bytes.length; i++)
{
    chars[i] = (char) bytes[i];
}
{code}

then set the property value to the value {{new String(chars)}}.

In the meantime I'll look to get this fixed properly/
