GH-759: Get length of byte[] in TryCopyLastError by hnwyllmm · Pull Request #760 · apache/arrow-java

hnwyllmm · 2025-05-20T14:24:31Z

What's Changed

We should get the length of byte[] by GetArrayLength, not strlen which may cause invalid memory access.

Closes #759.

Is it possible to add a test?

The error message in CI doesn't seem to be related to my PR:

/opt/rh/devtoolset-10/root/usr/libexec/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/10/ld: cannot find -lutf8proc
  collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

Do you have some suggestions?

I'll try to add a test case in integration_tests.py.

Could you open a separated issue for it?
Let's fix it as a separated task.

Do you need an integration test? IMO, you should be able to export a stream, then immediately import it, all within Java.

Thanks. (We've fixed this problem in apache/arrow. Sorry for not sharing it here...)

I add a unittest but I think it can't make sure TryCopyLastError works correctly, so I suggest it should be removed.
We can read memory after the error string address in most cases. We usually check such problems by sanity tools.

lidavidm · 2025-05-25T10:12:27Z

Can't the test validate that the exception has the right error message after making it through the FFI boundary?

PTAL.
I use a real exception message in the ExceptionTest.

Um, this is a little excessive. Can we just use a short canary string?

We need to assert that we did indeed get an exception.

+              assertThat(eMessage.length()).isGreaterThan(expectExceptionMessage.length() + 1); 
+              assertThat(eMessage.substring(eMessage.length() - expectExceptionMessage.length() - 1, eMessage.length() - 1))
+                  .isEqualTo(expectExceptionMessage);


Just use contains...

No, we must make sure the string in the exception is the same with we throws.
"abc\x037" contains "abc", but it's not correct and we want to catch the bug.

...then you just want endsWith?

I use endsWith to simplified the code.

Use assertThrows.

Thanks for your patient. It seems the failed CI test cases are not related with this PR now. Please take a look.

Ok. I'll merge this, but the CI really needs to be fixed...I just don't have time for arrow-java these days :/
