[Pyparsing] Beginner parsing problem

[Florian L. <mai...@xg...>]

Hello,

I've just started working with pyparsing

>>>
from pyparsing import *

text = """
FoamFile
{
    version     2.0;
    format      ascii;
    class       volVectorField;
    object      U;
}"""

text2 = " class       volVectorField;"

FKeyValue = Word(printables) + Word(printables) + ";"
FDictionary = Word(printables) + "{" + OneOrMore( FKeyValue ) + "}"

print FKeyValue.parseString(text2) # Works fine
print FDictionary.parseString(text) # Fails
<<<

(I use the F prefix to avoid name clashes with pyparsing stuff, might change set 
and switch to more selective import).

The last print fails:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "parse.py", line 22, in <module>
    print FKeyValue.parseString(text2)
  File "/home/florian/scratch/pyparsing.py", line 1006, in parseString
    raise exc
pyparsing.ParseException: Expected ";" (at char 28), (line:1, col:29)


What is wrong there? If I understood the documentation right, newlines are 
ignored, just like whitespace.

It's pyparsing downloaded from the 1.5.x svn branch.

Thanks,
Florian
