RFA_VERIFY( rsslDecodeMsg( &dec_mapIter, &newRsslMsg ) >= RSSL_RET_SUCCESS ) failed

Hi dear support, While migrating a critical RFA 7.6.1_L1 C++ application in production from SSLED to RSSL adapter (connected to ADS 2.6.2_L1 linux), the RFA crashes at startup with the following error message :

--------

RFA Internal failure Application: RFA Process Id: 0x5788 File: Session_OMM/Impl/OMMSrcDirectoryMsgHandler.cpp Line: 1039 Problem: RFA_VERIFY( rsslDecodeMsg( &dec_mapIter, &newRsslMsg ) >= RSSL_RET_SUCCESS ) failed

---------

After some investigation, it appears that we are able to reproduce the issue only when connecting to an ADS with a consequent number of services (126 exactly). This is the stack trace of the process when it crashes :

----------

I attached a RFA log + trace files, where I believe it seems to show that the failure happens while the RFA requests to download the DataDictionary from the ADS. Also, I dumped the RIPC session from the ADS, showing that after sending the "large" services map to this client, no more event comes from the client RFA (this is the latest message received or sent by the ADS to this client) :

---------

Could you try to explain what happens here exactly, and if there is a possibility to avoid this ? Thanks in advance for your help.

Kind regards, Julien

This could be a known issue fixed in RFA C++ 7.6.1.E4 onward. 

-----------------------------
rfa7.6.1.E4.win-static
-----------------------------
rfasl12624; RFACPP-690 CaseId: 03791830, 03814700 RFA Consumer throws an Exception when two or more OMMConsumersshare a Connection, and RFA tries to fan outthe Source Directory to the application.

Please upgrade the application to use RFA C++ 7.6.2.L1 or higher to avoid this issue.
