Hi Masashi,
require 'xml/libxml'(1..10000).each{|time| XML::Document.file('test.xml') p time if time % 100 == 0 }It won't segfault anymore, but now I get the following error: Too many open filesI/O warning : failed to load external entity "test.xml" libxml-test.rb:7:in `file': test.xml (IOError) from libxml-test.rb:7 from libxml-test.rb:6:in `each' from libxml-test.rb:6 However, the error disappears if "GC.start" is inserted just above XML::Document.file(...).
Right. This is another Ruby GC issue. If you don't call GC.start, then all the documents that you have created remain open. I assume this causes the OS to eventually run out of file handles, thus resulting in the error (which is being raised by libxml not Ruby).
By calling GC.start, the documents are freed and the file handles are released.
So I don't see this as a bug in the libxml bindings. Charlie
