Subject: IO-Compress-2.030 hangs on specific files
Date: Wed, 06 Oct 2010 00:18:34 +0200
To: bug-IO-Compress [...] rt.cpan.org, pmqs [...] cpan.org
From: Evert <Evert.gentoo [...] planet.nl>
Hello Paul, I found a bug in IO-Compress which makes it hang on specific files. My distribution: Gentoo Linux (stable branch and completely up2date) perl -v: This is perl, v5.8.8 built for i686-linux kernel: 2.6.35.5 PREEMPT AMD Athlon(tm) XP 2600+ AuthenticAMD GNU/Linux I first discovered the bug in IO-Compress-2.024 but the bug also exists in version 2.030. For my bug report and a simple test case, please see http://bugs.gentoo.org/339878 For convenience, I paste the data file and the script here too: test.log: 80.57.136.2 uncompress-test.pl: #!/usr/bin/perl use strict; use warnings; use IO::Uncompress::AnyUncompress qw(anyuncompress $AnyUncompressError); my $log_file = "test.log"; my $log = new IO::Uncompress::AnyUncompress $log_file, Transparent => 1, AutoClose => 1 or die "Cannot open $log_file: $AnyUncompressError\n"; while (<$log>) { print } I hope I have given enough information for you to be able to reproduce and solve the problem. Kind regards, Evert
Hi Evert, thanks for taking the time to report this bug, and even better you provided code for me to reproduce it. Will get onto it. Paul
