strcat does not allow overlapping ranges; we didn't have a test for this
but now we do.
As an added bonus, this also means we only compute the length of each
fragment once now.
This allows us to fix the quadratic complexity of parse_merge_pcdata.
After parsing the first PCDATA we need to advance by its length; we
still compute the length of each fragment twice with this approach, but
it's constant time.
strconcat in the parsing loop only works if we know the source string
comes from the same buffer that we're parsing. This is somewhat
cumbersome to establish during parsing and it requires extra tracking
data, so we just disable this combination as it's unlikely to be
actually useful - usually append_buffer would be called on a possibly
empty collection of elements, not on something with PCDATA.
We use a special number formatting routine to generate the XPath
REC-compliant number representation; it relies on being able to get a
decimal representation of the source number, which we use sprintf for as
a fallback.
This is fairly insensitive to current locale, except for an assertion
that validates the decimal point as a precaution, and this check
triggers when the locale decimal point is not a dot.
Ideally we'd use a locale-insensitive routine here. On some systems we
have ecvt_r (similarly to MSVC's ecvt_s), but it's deprecated so
adopting it might be fraught with peril.
For now let's simply adjust the assertion to account for locales with
comma as a separator. This is probably not fully comprehensive but
probably gets us from a 90% solution to a 99% solution...
Fixes#574.
Using Apple clang (clang-1400.0.29.202) with `-Wweak-vtables` would produce the following warning:
'xml_writer' has no out-of-line virtual method definitions; its vtable will be emitted in every translation unit [-Wweak-vtables]
Different OSes have different behavior when trying to fopen/fseek/ftell
a folder. On Linux, some systems return 0 size, some systems return an
error, and some systems return LONG_MAX. LONG_MAX is particularly
problematic because that causes spurious OOMs under address sanitizer.
Using fstat manually cleans this up, however it introduces a new
dependency on platform specific headers that we didn't have before, and
also has unclear behavior on 64-bit systems wrt 32-bit sizes which will
need to be tested further as I'm not certain if the behavior needs to be
special-cased only for MSVC/MinGW, which are currently not handled by
this path (unless MinGW defines __unix__...)
We use snprintf when stdc is set to C++11, however in C++98 mode we can't use variadic macros,
and Xcode 14 complains about the use of sprintf.
It should be safe however to use variadic macros on any remotely recent version of clang on Apple,
unless -pedantic is defined which warns against the use of variadic macros in C++98 mode...
This change fixes the problem for the builds that don't specify -pedantic, which is a problem for
another day.
There were two conditions under which xml_document::save_file could
previously return true even though the saving failed:
- The last write to the file was buffered in stdio buffer, and it's that
last write that would fail due to lack of disk space
- The data has been written correctly but fclose failed to update file
metadata, which can result in truncated size / missing inode updates.
This change fixes both by adjusting save_file to fflush before the check,
and also checking fclose results. Note that while fflush here is
technically redundant, because it's implied by fclose, we must check
ferror explicitly anyway, and so it feels a little cleaner to do most of
the error handling in save_file_impl, so that the changes of fclose()
failing are very slim.
Of course, neither change guarantees that the contents of the file are
going to be safe on disk following a power failure.
This cleans up xml_attribute::set_value to be uniform wrt
xml_node::set_value and xml_text::set_value - for now we duplicate the
body since the logic is trivial and this keeps debug performance
excellent.
This is the same fix as #497, but we're using auto_deleter instead
because if allocation function throws, we can't rely on an explicit call
to deallocate.
Comes along with two tests that validate the behavior.
