[Tclxml-users] Seg fault validating a document

[George H. <fr...@di...>]

Hi,

I've installed the 3.0b2 release of the XML/DOM/XSL tools and have run
into a problem with 'segmentation fault' crashes when trying to
validate a document. A simple example is included below. What am I
doing wrong?

My setup is:
  Slackware Linux 9.1
  Tcl 8.4.5 (built from source).
  libxml2 2.6.9 (built from source).
  Tcl XML/DOM/XSL 3.0b2 (built from source).

As a cross-check, I also tried it on a NetBSD-Sparc system and got
the same crash.

Regards,
George

<Test>This is a valid document</Test>
}]

$inst dtd validate

dom::destroy $inst
