{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"DiscussionForumPosting","headline":"Large InputStreams cause negative index fault","articleBody":"The code attempts to increase the size of the buffer with a 2x multiplier until no further bytes are available.  I have some concerns about this (but no concrete solution) because this in-memory approach is not a true stream.  But, that aside, the following code within keepSkippedBytesThenRead(...) causes a problem:\r\n\r\nbyte[] newBuf = new byte[iter.buf.length * 2];\r\n\r\nThis leads to rapid increases in memory allocation for the buffer.  When processing a large input you can easily roll to a negative integer and then you will obviously end up with an allocation error as the length is negative.  A better approach, which I'll check in shortly, is to only increase the length of the byte array by the increment of the initially provided size in the JsonIter.parse(...). A more meaningful error than the negative index is also advised.","author":{"url":"https://github.com/ahantke","@type":"Person","name":"ahantke"},"datePublished":"2017-11-14T01:16:39.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":2},"url":"https://github.com/124/java/issues/124"}
