Bug Information
Severity: Important
Broken in: 2.14
Fixed in: (no value)



Subject: CDATA bug
XML Simple (2.14) does not parse CDATA sections correctly when run on WinXP SP2 under ActivePerl (5.8.8 Build 816). CDATA sections get appended with a right-arrow (">") for some reason. This does not occur under RHEL4 using Perl 5.8.5. The attached test script demonstrates the behavior. Linux output: $VAR1 = 'filfthflarnfilfth'; Windows output: $VAR1 = 'filfthflarnfilfth>';
Subject: testr.pl
#!/usr/bin/perl use XML::Simple; use Data::Dumper; $pxml = new XML::Simple; $testmsg = "<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?><testmsg><![CDATA[filfthflarnfilfth]]></testmsg>"; $comm = $pxml->XMLin($testmsg); print Dumper($comm);
