[Pyparsing] nestedExpr bug?

[stefaan.himpe <ste...@gm...>]

Hello list,

The following works:


import pyparsing as p
t = """
{
( "{")
}

"""
nE = p.nestedExpr("{","}",ignoreExpr=p.quotedString)
r = nE.parseString(t)


But after removing one space between the ( and the ", it crashes:

import pyparsing as p
t = """
{
("{")
}

"""
nE = p.nestedExpr("{","}",ignoreExpr=p.quotedString)
r = nE.parseString(t)


This looks like a bug to me?

Best regards,
Stefaan.

Stefaan -

Ouch, good catch on this one.  Yes, it is a bug in nestedExpr.  You can get
a patched version of pyparsing from the wiki home page (*still* locked out
of my SF SVN account!), which contains a fix to this bug.  Write back if
this does not fix the problem.

Thanks for the note, Stefaan.
