[jira] Commented: (QPID-1449) C++ broker on Windows with --mgmt-enable no triggers crash setting up client

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-1449?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12655375#action_12655375 ] 

Ted Ross commented on QPID-1449:
--------------------------------

I have a fix for this bug which I could check in immediately if desired.

The fix generates a new federation tag at startup to be used if management is disabled.

The current code declares a std::string but never gives it a value if management is disabled.  In this case, it is constructed as an empty string and remains this way.  The question I have is why is this considered invalid on Windows?

> If the C++ broker is started on Windows with --mgmt-enable no, the exchange to set up a new client causes an assert in the C++ library. This is because the federation tag doesn't have an associated string - when encoding the value for qpid.federation_tag, the value is invalid.
> When running on Linux with the same option, the qpid.federation_tag value is an empty string.
