Are these bugs? This is ruby-1.8.4. The YAML spec seems to say “\0” is
legit.
require ‘yaml’
m = YAML.load(<<END)
a: 4
b: “\0\0”
c: 5
END
p m
puts
m = YAML.load(<<END)
a: 4
b: “\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0”
b: 6
c: 5
END
p m
puts
begin
m = YAML.load(<<END)
a: 4
b: “\0”
c: 5
END
rescue => ex
p ex
puts ex.backtrace
end
END
Output:
{“a”=>4, “b”=>""}
{“a”=>4}
