This was evidenced by an 'assert' failure, that the type was not an 'int'!
And also in the -xml-help output, thus effecting the tidy.1 manual page
for this new feature --vertical-space auto, which produces almost single
line html output.
This 'fix' began in the issue-228 branch - see Issue #231
This is a case where the lexer, in GetTokenfromStream, does NOT eat any
trailing newline after a LEX_STARTTAG: case...
So far have identified pre, script, style as NEEDING this user newline
character for later pprint output. Any others?
As per the chosen versioning system, this immediately becomes 5.1.0, the
master development stream - hopefully ALWAYS stable - with improvements of
all types...
Should any bug fix be interesting for 5.0.0 release, this change would be
push to the release/5.0.0 branch, making it version 5.0.1... or 5.0.0RC2
if still in the RC stage of release...
html5 allows a naked ampersand unquoted, and now tidy will not issue a
warning. This only deals with a & b, and P&<li>O</li>
More may need to be done for other cases.
There was an idea to mark this function deprecated, such that if used the
developer would see a warning. But this was never implemented in a cross
platform way.
So for now revert to circa Jan 2015 when Jim added a build date to the
version.txt file. And now both LIBTIDY_VERSION and RELEASE_DATE macros are
established in CMakeLists.txt, and picked up in version.h.
The idea is the date will now march forward with the version number, side
by side in version.txt. Although have left tidy.c only emitting the
version on the --version command.
After this function has been marked deprecated for several release periods,
only then should consideration be given to potentially removing it.
This is when setting a String config value through say tidyOptSetValue
using say tidyOptSetValue(tdoc,id,"").
If the length of the new string is zero then do not allocate a 1 byte
buffer, set it to 0, for the option. Any previous buffer has already been
released.
This means API functions like tidyOptSaveSink will not return erroneous
null String values!
This new warning will only be seen if the document remains in HTML5 mode,
where the summary attribute is obsolete. The W3C validator flags this as
an error, and suggests 'Consider describing the structure of the table in
a caption element or in a figure element containing the table; or simplify
the structure of the table so that no description is needed'.
At the same time this patch also restored the old warning if the document
is HTML4--, if the table element lacks a summary attribute. This has been
a tidy warning since the beginning of time, although the W3C validator
does not presently flag this.
