Recursive mustache template ends with "Maximum call stack size exceeded"

[honzatrtik]

i'm trying to render recursive tree structure with canjs mustache engine, but getting "Maximum call stack size exceeded" - code reproducing this behaviour: http://jsfiddle.net/R5Vbw/3/

Here is an updated example that works: http://jsfiddle.net/R5Vbw/2/

The reason is that if Mustache doesn't find it on the current object it walk up to the parent and tries to look it up there.

This is however an issue that we are hoping to solve in 2.1 (probably by prefixing with ./ if you want to prevent the scope lookup).

Another explanation for myself:

This fails because #children is always going to be found, so {{> #template}} will be recursed indefinitely.

There is not much we can do to prevent this.

@daffl do we have an issue for ./ if we do, we should reference and close this issue.

I couldn't find one that's why I left this one open.
