Json data that I pass using atmosphere sometimes is corrupted

[xserge]

Hello, I found error on runtime.

My configuration:
Atmosphere 0.8.5,
Firefox 10.0.2
glassfish-3.1.2-web-b23

In my application I send json data from serverside to browser.
I noticed that sometimes I can't parse json data on a client because data is periodically corrupted.
The problem appears in two variants:

1. sometimes data that passed in atmosphere callback concatenates two json results. Just after one set of json data
   goes next set of json data in one parameter of atmosphere callback. And $.parseJSON() parses this data with error.
   During debugging I found that in that case something wrong with variable request.lastIndex on atmosphere javascript sources
   response.responseBody = responseText.substring(request.lastIndex, responseText.length);
2. sometimes data that passed in atmosphere callback is cutted somethere in middle.
   During debugging of atmosphere javascript sources I found that corrupted data received on that line
   line:330 var responseText = ajaxRequest.responseText;
   So XMLHttpRequest object returns cutted data. (but may be it is sideeffect of debugging)

Salut, never faced such issues :-( Do you have a fix for that?

[jfarcand]

Also can you try 0.9-SNAPSHOT to see if that help?

Thanks!

Is this the same issue? https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!searchin/atmosphere-framework/json$20/atmosphere-framework/DwZrZNK6bhI/-6zFA2T8ky8J

I have the same issue.
Seems the problem is well known see:
#70

I can reproduce the problem using the sample atmosphere-meteor-pubsub-period attached to this thread:
http://groups.google.com/group/atmosphere-framework/browse_thread/thread/4016338ae729bd39/1657bda49e6b6368?lnk=gst&q=#1657bda49e6b6368

It is very important for me to get a fix for the version 0.8.6 or some patch in this version.

Thanks,
Vasile

This is not a bug, but a missing features in Atmosphere. Take a look at the Twitter Feeds for a workaround

I would like to reopen this issue.
I consider it as an issue, if you want to name it feature, it is fine but please implement this in the Atmosphere.
Maybe as an option, depending on the application you need this feature or maybe you can ignore it.
But at least I want to be able to activate this feature in Atmosphere itself.

This has been fixed in 0.9. Take a look at the Twitter-live-feed sample.
