SVG data parsing results in IllegalArgumentException

[pusolito]

The following is valid SVG data and works in this fiddle.

"M12.5 11H11.71L11.43 10.73A6.471 6.471 0 0013 6.5 6.5 6.5 0 106.5 13C8.11 13 9.59 12.41 10.73 11.43L11 11.71V12.5L16 17.49 17.49 16 12.5 11ZM6.5 11C4.01 11 2 8.99 2 6.5S4.01 2 6.5 2 11 4.01 11 6.5 8.99 11 6.5 11Z"

However, it fails to parse in 0.7.16.

file: .../commonMain/org/jetbrains/skia/Path.kt

fun makeFromSVGString(svg: String): Path  {
    Stats.onNativeCall()
    val result = interopScope {
        _nMakeFromSVGString(toInterop(svg))
    }

    if (result == NullPointer) {
       throw IllegalArgumentException("Failed to parse SVG Path string: $svg") // <=========== Gets here b/c result is NullPointer
    } else {
        return Path(result)
    }
 }

Any updates on this issue? It is a blocker for apps that rely on SVG.

Found a possible cause/fix for this issue. It seems like a formatting issue with non-standard representations of arcs. The code will work after adding spaces like the image below. Some SVG optimization tools (e.g. https://www.svgviewer.dev/ ) may be able to do this automatically.

Thanks for following up. These changes resolved my issue. It's interesting that some engines are more lenient in their parsing. But it makes more sense to have clean inputs when possible.
