Potential parse issue with "."

[rsbeckerca]

I have been working with some complex YAML files, and found an strange behaviour. If '.' is specified, yamli_parser_parse(parser, &event) correctly reports event.type == YAML_SCALAR_EVENT. If . is specified, event.type == YAML_NO_EVENT comes back. I understand that this is correct. However, when "." is specified, this also comes back with YAML_NO_EVENT. My (potentially wrong) understanding is that the semantics of '.' and "." are the same. The context of the token is within a sequence, so:

join: [ "A", ".", "c" ]

The parser is unable to move past the "." token. This happens on any platform.

Is this a bug? The version is 0.2.5 commit 2c891fc.

Can you paste some reproducing code? And / or can you try out the tests/run-parser-test-suite program? You can use it like this, and for me everything looks like expected:

% echo "join: [ '.', \".\", . ]" | ./tests/run-parser-test-suite
+STR
+DOC
+MAP
=VAL :join
+SEQ
=VAL '.   # =VAL ' stands for a single quoted scalar
=VAL ".   # =VAL " for a double quoted scalar
=VAL :.   # =VAL : for a plain scalar
-SEQ
-MAP
-DOC
-STR

If you look at the source code for the program above, maybe you can see what your code is doing differently.

This looks like an error on the part of our parser. There was a duplicate event delete that threw things into a mess. The problem is resolved as of 5 minutes ago. Thanks for answering.
