Bug #57473 for Config-General: Here documents are not ignoring XML syntax

Subject:

Here documents are not ignoring XML syntax

I have a config file with a here document embedded that has XML syntax within (using, for example, <runtime> as part of the here-document content). Since it's inside a here document, it should be ignored from the config itself and should be included as the content of that configuration value. Instead, I'm getting the error: Config::General: Block "<runtime>" has no EndBlock statement (level: 2, chunk 36)! at C:/@chris/svn/dotNet Configurator/bin/../lib/Tools/Config.pm line 107

I cannot reproduce this. Example script: #!/usr/bin/perl use lib qw(blib/lib); use Config::General qw(ParseConfig); use Data::Dumper; my %cfg = ParseConfig(shift); print $Config::General::VERSION . "\n"; print Dumper(\%cfg); Example config: test = <<EOF <breakfast_menu> <food> <name>Belgian Waffles</name> <price>$5.95</price> <description> two of our famous Belgian Waffles with plenty of real maple syrup </description> <calories>650</calories> </food> </breakfast_menu> EOF Output: ./test.pl here.cfg 2.49 $VAR1 = { 'test' => '<breakfast_menu> <food> <name>Belgian Waffles</name> <price>$5.95</price> <description> two of our famous Belgian Waffles with plenty of real maple syrup </description> <calories>650</calories> </food> </breakfast_menu>' };
