[jira] Updated: (QPID-3156) Java client implementation of the Address syntax for Destinations throws a ClassCastException when used with the documented 'True' or 'False' values for node durability

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-3156?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Robbie Gemmell updated QPID-3156:
---------------------------------

    Description: 
The Java client implementation of the Address syntax for destinations throws a ClassCastException when used with the documented (http://qpid.apache.org/books/0.8/Programming-In-Apache-Qpid/html/ch02s04.html#section-address-string-bnf) 'True' or 'False' values for node durability, instead requiring that users specify 'true' or 'false' as the value to achieve the desired effect. The former is parsed as a boolean value by the AddressParser whereas the later is parsed as a String, but the AddressHelper implementation expects the durable property to be defined as a String and casts the value as such without doing an instanceof check after retrieving it from an untyped Map, thus leading to the ClassCastException observed.

Ideally I would suggest the parser/helper should accept both variations going forward, thus preserving compatibility for anyone with already functional code and also making it possible for users to use whichever variant they prefer because e.g. it is best suited to a particular implementation language idiom.


Reported by a user via the dev list:

I tried to create a durable queue like this

queue = queueSession.createQueue("myQueue;{create:always, node:{durable:
True}}");
        QueueSender queueSender = queueSession.createSender(queue);
        queueSender.send(textMessage);

and getting this exception.

Caused by: java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.Boolean cannot be cast to java.lang.String
