What problem is this PR intended to solve?
XML::Reader
parsing errors encountered duringReader#attribute_hash
andReader#namespaces
now raise anXML::SyntaxError
.Previously these methods would return
nil
and users would generally experienceNoMethodErrors
from elsewhere in the code.Have you included adequate test coverage?
Test coverage added.
Does this change affect the behavior of either the C or the Java implementations?
The C and Java parsers differ in when they detect a syntax error in this case. libxml2 indicates an error when we try to expand a start tag that does not have a matching end tag, but xerces will defer the error until later. The tests reflect that difference.
