I'm experiencing recurring issues with xmlGetLineNo in DOM tree parsing. Even though I set XML_PARSE_BIG_LINES as an option to xmlReadDoc or xmlReadFile, the return value of xmlGetLineNo never exceeds 65535 (even though it should by a large margin), in most of my XML files, except for one. So the issue is unsystematic. Encoding of files is ISO-8859-1.
I tried to compile from github master source and increase the depth ceiling value in xmlGetLineNoInternal (from 5 to 15, see commit 968a03a2e54f5bcf53089f5e3c8f790dbe0bf824) but to no avail. it also seems that psvi fields are null in the cases at hand, which looks like a possible cause. I'm running an updated Gentoo GNU/Linux platform and platform compiler is gcc-5.4.0, libxml2 version is 2.9.4-r1 and I also tried the lastest github master code, same compiler, as well as gcc-6.3: no changes. Is this a known issue or is there any hope of a way out? I found no references to this in the archive either as of Aug. 2012. _______________________________________________ xml mailing list, project page http://xmlsoft.org/ xml@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/xml
