How does one debug the HTML::Parser xs code? Do I need to rebuild the perl
binary with debugging enabled? I've tried building HTML::Parser itself with
OPTIMIZE=-g, and running gdb against perl (passing my program as a command
argument), and that doesn't seem to work.
The problem I am trying to debug is that HTML::Parser is causing perl to
segfault when presented with particularly braindead html. In this particular
case the html I am doing a parse_file on is clearly invalid (it is missing a
">" on the second meta tag and is otherwise badly written), but the parser
probably shouldn't cause perl to segfault which is what it does on my
system. If you are interested in seeing the html file, grab it from
http://www.rameinc.com/ . I'm running the latest version of HTML::Parser and
LWP. I've tried it under both perl5.00503 and perl5.00404.
Thanks in advance for any hints.
Cheers, Alex
