#2777 closed defect (wontfix)

msautotest tests failed when XML contains blank or new line

Component: msautotest Version: svn-trunk (development)
Severity: normal Keywords: msautotest, XML, blank, new line
Cc: tomkralidis, warmerdam

Description

When comparing XML files in the msautotest tests suite, tests failed because XML files differ by a blank or new line characters. This may happens when using different versions of libxml2. Do someone a solution to overcome this issue?

See ticket 2776 for example.

Norm: per #2776. Should we close?

comment:3 by nsavard, 15 years ago

I prefer not for now. I thought about a possible solution.

Resolution: wontfix
Status: newclosed

I'm not convinced we should be avoiding error reports on white space/newline differences. For this particular situation, I think we can just be careful to use safe versions of libxml.

I'm going to close this, but if you want to do something about it Normand, feel free to reopen it and assign it to yourself.

Tom already asked to close it in comment:2. I think both of you are right. So that's ok for me.
