#563 Apparent infinite loop in PartialEvaluator.evaluateExceptionHandlers

[Dave Brosius]

Proguard appears to hit an infinite loop, in PartialEvaluator.evaluateExceptionHandlers

in this section

    do
    {
        // Reset the flag to stop evaluating.
        evaluateExceptions = false;

        // Evaluate all relevant exception catch blocks once.
        codeAttribute.exceptionsAccept(clazz,
                                       method,
                                       startOffset,
                                       endOffset,
                                       exceptionEvaluator);
    }
    while (evaluateExceptions);

I put a count breakpoint of 100000 hit count, and the breakpoint hits, and continues, never to exit.

The class it's parsing is b/b, so i'm not sure i can give you much info as i don't know what that came from.

The class in question has a proguard.classfile.attribute.annotation.Annotation on it. It has 4 fields and 177 methods.

The method in question has a proguard.classfile.attribute.CodeAttribute and SignatureAttribute on it.

It references 3 classes java/sql/Connection, I/n and java/util/Map

The proguard.classfile.attribute.ExceptionInfo table has 10 exceptions in it.

The exceptionEvaluator is a proguard.classfile.visitor.ExceptionHandlerFilter, startoffset 0, endOffset 277.

I realize this info is probably useless, but in case it's not, there it is.

any flags i can use to get around this, till fixed?
