mbeckerle opened a new pull request #141: Fixed infinite loop due to not gathering the error reliably. URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-daffodil/pull/141 Problem is that a regular scala lazy val x = expression If the expression throws, this lazy val will be re-evaluated over and over each time it is requested. That's why we have the LV system. This insures such values are attempted exactly once, and if they throw, the fact that they threw is remembered, and they're not attempted again. To reduce overhead we've taken out a bunch of the LVs. But this results in compiler errors that ripple. When parts of the compiler can't be LVs because they are methods with parameters, it's important to CALL such methods from something that IS an LV so that if an error is thrown, it's not repeatedly thrown. So a number of LVs have been put back in. Especially on things that involve recursive descent or traversal of the DSOM objects or corresponding XML. This also fixes some other minor bugs which were being masked. E.g., a test for hiddenGroupRef where the ref is empty string. I also renamed this test since it was poorly named. DAFFODIL-2202
