Java Paho: ClientId longer than 23 characters [message #1777861]

Hey,

i started with Paho one week ago. First of all : good work!

I tried to generate a clientId via this method:

MqttClient.generateClientId()

my exact line of code:

client = new MqttClient(ip, MqttClient.generateClientId());

this was my error:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: ClientId longer than 23 characters
at org.eclipse.paho.client.mqttv3.MqttAsyncClient.<init>(MqttAsyncClient.java:257)
at org.eclipse.paho.client.mqttv3.MqttClient.<init>(MqttClient.java:222)
at org.eclipse.paho.client.mqttv3.MqttClient.<init>(MqttClient.java:134)
at MQTTMessenger.<init>(MQTTMessenger.java:27)
at SmartFactory.<init>(SmartFactory.java:24)
at SmartFactoryMain.main(SmartFactoryMain.java:5)

Did i do something wrong? Or why is the "generateClientId"-method producing a wrong clientId?

I hope i don't waste ur time.

Have a nice day.

Fine regards,

Carl

Hi Carl,

What version of the Client are you using? The limit on 23 characters was removed in MQTT 3.1.1, and this check / error in particular was removed back in 2014 (https://github.com/eclipse/paho.mqtt.java/commit/10a54a9fad659ca82dfe87eae7e5d884b6917b33#diff-d6165e482e4450b02a9da12294033054)

I'd suggest upgrading to the latest version of the Paho client, where the Client ID limit is 65535 characters.

The current version is 1.2.0 which can be found on Maven Central here: https://search.maven.org/#artifactdetails%7Corg.eclipse.paho%7Corg.eclipse.paho.client.mqttv3%7C1.2.0%7Ceclipse-plugin
