Re^2: YAML::XS Load/LoadFile error

Yeah, I follow this is a problem in the module, not my code or the data structure, which is why I'm curious. This is the "latest", YAML::XS 0.34.

Line 70 just calls YAML::XS::LibYAML, which is the C executable.

Like I said, it would not take me long to do this by hand or another way -- JSON, XML, Storable, it doesn't matter -- just this seems excessively pathetic...

Bugs are annoying, but pathetic? That's an odd characterisation, especially considering we have no idea what the bug is. Line 262 is a blank line. It's surely coming from what I see as line 265: `/* Get each key string and value node and put them in the hash */ while ((key_node = load_node(loader))) { assert(SvPOK(key_node)); <--------------- value_node = load_node(loader); hv_store_ent( hash, key_node, value_node, 0 ); }` [download] It's expecting `load_node` to return a scalar already containing a string, but a check finds it doesn't. What does that mean exactly? The module's author could probably tell you faster than I could.	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Hmph. Made me wonder if 'undef' hash keys could be an issue but they test fine. Maybe I'll inquire. I have used this somewhat before, it always seemed simple and trouble free.	[reply]
