Hi Jerry!
Hi all,
The attached patch adds code in read_sf_internal to handle early
termination of reads in the presence of comma's. This is to support
legacy codes which are not standard conforming as far as we can tell.
The additions are executed only if -std=legacy is given at compile time.
It does not support kind=4 internal units since in legacy years there
should be no kind=4 internal units.
I have provuded a simplified test case for various combinations of comma
embedded strings.
This has been regression tested on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu.
OK for trunk?
Yes, OK. I like the fact that the old, slow behavior is restricted
to -std=legacy :-)
This use to work way back in early versions so should probably go to 7
and 8 branches. Opinions welcome.
I agree, it should go in.
Thanks a lot for the patch!
Regards
Thomas
