| Subject: | Hangs Forever when "make test" |
Dear Mark Swayne,
Hi. This is imacat from Taiwan. I found that your
WWW-Google-Groups-0.09 hangs for a very long time (several hours) when
"make test".
I tried to dig into your code. It seems to hang at
$result = $agent->search(
query => 'groups',
);
in your test.pl. Further investigation shows that, in the search()
method of the WWW::Google::Groups::Search class, the "while(@result <
$arg{limit}){" loops infinitely, while @result is always empty.
I do not know if this is OK. Maybe you can take some time to look
into it.
I attached the terminal log below. Hope that this helps. Please
tell me if you need any more information, or if I could be of any help.
Thank you.

The test needs internet connection. Be sure to get connected, or you
will get several error messages.
