Unexpected INFO event. Expected: End. Actual: CData(BytesCData...

[bmatthieu3]

The votable returned by the cdsxmatch service is not parsed correctly: http://cdsxmatch.u-strasbg.fr/QueryCat/QueryCat?catName=SIMBAD&mode=cone&pos=M1&r=50arcmin&format=votable&limit=3000

It has the following error message:

caught Error parsing votable: Custom("Unexpected INFO event. Expected: End. Actual: CData(BytesCData { content: Borrowed(\"0xA(${otype}=\\"Star\\" || ${otype}=\\"\*\\") && (${B}!=0 || ${V}!=0 || ${R}!=0 || ${J}!=0 || ${K}!=0) {0xA draw pm(${pmra},${pmdec})0xA draw circle(-$[phot.mag],3,15)0xA}0xA(${otype}=\\"Star\\" ||${otype}=\\"\*\\") && ${B}=\\"\\" && ${V}=\\"\\" && ${R}=\\"\\" && ${J}=\\"\\" && ${K}=\\"\\" {0xA draw pm(${pmra},${pmdec})0xA draw circle(3)0xA}0xA${otype}=\\"Radio\\" || ${otype}=\\"Maser\\" || ${otype}=\\"HI\\" { draw triangle }0xA${otype}=\\"UV\\" {draw cross;draw plus}0xA${otype}=\\"IR\\" || ${otype}=\\"Red\\" {draw rhomb}0xA${otype}=\\"Neb\\" || ${otype}=\\"PN\\" || ${otype}=\\"SNR*\\" {draw square}0xA${otype}=\\"HII\\" { draw dot }${otype}=\\"X\\" { draw cross }0xA${otype}!=\\"Unknown\\" { draw ${otype} }0xA{ draw dot }\") }).") p

Maybe it is the INFO content starting with a '<!' that triggers the error:

The problem comes from CDATA that is no supported so far. I may simply ignore CDATA and its content in a first step...

[fxpineau]

Now CDATA is accepted in 'Info', 'Desciption', 'Link', 'ParamRef' and 'FieldRef' content, see v0.2.3
