[Htmlparser-developer] Latest code Problems

[Somik R. <so...@ya...>]

Hi Derrick, Everyone,

    I checked out the latest code, and I found the following problems :
[1] testHTTPCharset and testHTMLCharset still fail. This time the =
failures are : Could not open http://www.ibm.co.jp (I tried changing it =
to www.ibm.com/jp but that didnt help.

[2] HTMLLinkBeanInfo and HTMLTextBeanInfo dont compile. Are you relying =
on something in JDK 1.4 ? Bytway, htmlparser is JDK 1.1 compliant. I am =
not sure if that should change, but then again, it really depends on the =
users of the parser.

[3] I am wondering if org.htmlparser.beans should exist outside the main =
htmlparser module - in a module of its own within the htmlparser =
project. That way the parser workspace could be focussed on the parsing =
functionality. What do you think ?

[4] I've fixed the bug that was being caught by testExtractLinkBug2 - =
based on Sam's suggestion, but I think more work needs to be done. =
Currently, HTMLStringNode has turned thread-unsafe due to its =
customizability. Since it is static, thread-safety goes out the window. =
The obvious refactoring would be to have non-static class(es) for the =
basic automata - which would have a 1:1 mapping with the parser =
instance.

Somik
