[jira] Commented: (LANG-477) ExtendedMessageFormat: OutOfMemory with custom format registry and a pattern containing single quotes

["Roshan Ail (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-477?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12761797#action_12761797 ] 

Roshan Ail commented on LANG-477:
---------------------------------

Any chance of this being put into an interim release.
We ran into this in production. I spent a lot of time debugging it before finding out where it went into the loop.
This is a serious bug. It would be helpful to everybody if this was released as version 2.5 or something and pushed to the central maven repo.
I can then update our poms to pull this in.

>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 2.4

> When using ExtendedMessageFormat with a custom format registry and a pattern conatining single quotes, an OutOfMemoryError will occur.
> Example that will cause error:
> {code:title=ExtendedMessageFormatTest.java|borderStyle=solid}
> private static Map<String, Object> formatRegistry = new HashMap<String, Object>();    
>     static {
>         formatRegistry.put(DummyFormatFactory.DUMMY_FORMAT, new DummyFormatFactory());
>     }
>     
>     public static void main(String[] args) {
>         ExtendedMessageFormat mf = new ExtendedMessageFormat("it''s a {dummy} 'test'!", formatRegistry);
>         String formattedPattern = mf.format(new String[] {"great"});
>         System.out.println(formattedPattern);
>     }
> }
> {code}
> The following change starting at line 421 on the 2.4 release seems to fix the problem:
> {code:title=ExtendedMessageFormat.java|borderStyle=solid}
> CURRENT (Broken):
> if (escapingOn && c[start] == QUOTE) {
>         return appendTo == null ? null : appendTo.append(QUOTE);
> }
> WORKING:
> if (escapingOn && c[start] == QUOTE) {
>         next(pos);
>         return appendTo == null ? null : appendTo.append(QUOTE);
> }
> {code}
