endless loop

Post by roedygr »

I was modifying a lot of files that were already loaded in HTML Validator. It asked me If I wanted to reload them. It went into an endless loop loading the same files over and over. I suggest you put an assertion in there to ensure you don't reload a file more than once, and dump out info that would be helpful to figure out why it is doing that. I think it would be quite difficult to restage the events that triggered this.

Thanks. I'll keep this in mind.

Note that I've never seen or heard about this behavior before.

If you find a way to reproduce it then please let me know.
