Sridhar Ratnakumar <sridh...@activestate.com> added the comment: I traced the "infinite loop" to tokenizer.c:tok_get around line 1368:
while (Py_ISALNUM(c) || c == '_') { c = tok_nextc(tok); } Adding a `printf` statement at the beginning of the loop: printf("tok_get: third while: c = %c (%d) ... Py_ISALNUM=%d\n", c, c, Py_ISALNUM(c)); Output: tok_get: third while: c = � (-1) ... Py_ISALNUM=2 tok_get: third while: c = � (-1) ... Py_ISALNUM=2 tok_get: third while: c = � (-1) ... Py_ISALNUM=2 tok_get: third while: c = � (-1) ... Py_ISALNUM=2 tok_get: third while: c = � (-1) ... Py_ISALNUM=2 tok_get: third while: c = � (-1) ... Py_ISALNUM=2 tok_get: third while: c = � (-1) ... Py_ISALNUM=2 tok_get: third while: c = � (-1) ... Py_ISALNUM=2 [...] I may not spend much time on this bug, unless someone can hint at what might have gone wrong here? As for 2.6-maint, I will find that out sometime this week. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue9020> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
