Replace managed JSON payloads with binary protocol - #5
Conversation
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe change replaces JSON interop payloads with versioned binary payloads for XLSX, CSV, and template operations. It adds .NET encoders, Rust decoders, ABI version 2, end-to-end package tests, and package validation that rejects exposed ChangesBinary interop migration
Priority: ➖ Normal Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The binary interop migration is not ready to merge because malformed binary payloads can cause excessive native allocations and terminate the process. CSV validation consistency and large-template memory usage also remain open but are less severe. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

read_lengthreturns anyu32, soVec::with_capacity(count)andMap::with_capacity(count)can request up to about 4 billion elements before any byte of the body is read. A truncated or corrupted payload then triggers a very large allocation, and allocation failure aborts the process instead of returningERROR_INVALID_ARGUMENT. Clamp the reservation to the remaining byte count, or useVec::new()and let it grow.♻️ Example for the mapped-cell loop
- let mut cells = Vec::with_capacity(count); + let mut cells = Vec::new(); + cells.reserve(count.min(1024));Also applies to: 2194-2194, 2202-2202

to validate the CSV delimiter using the same rules as WriteCsv: reject '\0' and
values above 0x7f with ArgumentException. Keep valid ASCII delimiters flowing to
EncodeCsvWrite unchanged so both CSV paths report consistent errors.

Validate the CSV delimiter before encoding.
WriteCsv rejects a delimiter that is '\0' or above 0x7f with ArgumentException (Lines 2501-2502). SaveAsCsvAsync has no such check. EncodeCsvWrite uses checked((byte)options.Delimiter), so a delimiter above 0xff throws OverflowException, and a delimiter in 0x80-0xff silently encodes a non-ASCII byte. Add the same validation so both CSV paths report the same error.
🐛 Proposed fix
+ if (configuration.Delimiter == '\0' || configuration.Delimiter > 0x7f)
+ throw new ArgumentException("The CSV delimiter must be a single-byte ASCII character.", nameof(configuration));

‼️ IMPORTANT
Carefully review the code before committing. Ensure that it accurately replaces the highlighted code, contains no missing lines, and has no issues with indentation. Thoroughly test & benchmark the code to ensure it meets the requirements.
