I'll wait for the last three commits to be merged before doing the following related changes:

  • keep wireEncode and wireDecode in the template, and move transform part to helper functions in .cpp
  • require WireEncodable and WireDecodable concepts for T, and use T(const Block&) constructor instead of wireDecode method
  • do not require T::Error type

https://gerrit.named-data.net/3111 moves transform part of io::load and io::save into io::loadBlock and io::saveBlock.

Actions #7

Updated by Junxiao Shi over 7 years ago

NFD Mgmt/TestCommandAuthenticator/BadConfig/CertUnreadable test case fails to terminate since commit:f2515a772b4a1c401927a748371cb36b94022caf is merged.
In that test case, io::load is used to read from a non-existent file.
In this situation, std::ifstream constructor sets failbit but not badbit, but unlike CryptoPP, transform::StreamSource does not properly handle this situation.

Test case Util/TestIo/LoadFileNotReadable is meant to catch this situation.
However, this test case creates a directory at filename, and open(dirName) can be successful on many platforms.

https://gerrit.named-data.net/3113 corrects the condition within StreamSource, and also corrects the setup in Util/TestIo/LoadFileNotReadable test case.

https://gerrit.named-data.net/3111 breaks NFD and ChronoChat because they rely on some #includes that are no longer there.

https://travis-ci.org/yoursunny/ndn-cxx-breaks/builds/153662514

https://gerrit.named-data.net/3120 adds proper #includes to ChronoChat.

I'll patch NFD later.

Actions #9

Updated by Junxiao Shi over 7 years ago

There's another regression exposed in ChronoChat http://jenkins.named-data.net/job/ChronoChat/97/

The failing test case invokes io::load(is, BASE_64) where is contains a base64-encoded object all on one line.
It seems that io::load is not correctly handling this case, and that existing base64 test cases only cover very small objects.

I'll investigate this soon.

Actions #10

Updated by Junxiao Shi over 7 years ago

https://gerrit.named-data.net/3121 adds proper #include to NFD.

Actions #11

Updated by Junxiao Shi over 7 years ago

Potentially breaking change notice for https://gerrit.named-data.net/3111 is sent to ndn-lib nfd-dev.
Deadline is Aug 24. This is shorter than the usual 5-day period because transitive includes are not guaranteed public API.

Unfortunately, openssl is not as flexible as CryptoPP. transform::base64Decode by default assumes there are separators, can be supplied 'false' for otherwise, but doesn't allow guessing whether input has separators or not.

Updated by Junxiao Shi over 7 years ago

https://gerrit.named-data.net/3137 solves note-9 regression.

I have also renamed BASE_64 to BASE64 which is more logical.
This requires a patch for nTorrent https://gerrit.named-data.net/3138.

https://gerrit.named-data.net/3149 adds concept checks and stops requiring T::Error.

Actions #15

Updated by Junxiao Shi over 7 years ago

https://gerrit.named-data.net/3126 BASE_64 renaming also needs a patch for ndns https://gerrit.named-data.net/3150.

Breaking change notice is sent to ndn-lib nfd-dev, deadline Sep 04.
