PSPP-BUG: Fwd: fields not read as expected in data list free

[pascal barbedor]

PS

the error seems to be caused by the space just before the comma in the last three lines of data.
if the space is deleted everything goes fine.
but how is it possible ?

hi

here is a minimal program that does not read fields as expected (0.6.1 and 0.7.2):


DATA LIST FREE TABLE / rubrique  (A18) value (A32).

BEGIN DATA.
S20.G01.00.017.002,'31'
S20.G01.00.017.003,'32'
S20.G01.00.018,'A00'
S30.G01.00.001 ,'xxx'
S30.G01.00.002 ,'xxx'
S30.G01.00.003 ,'xxx'
END DATA.

LIST.


there don't seem to be any mismatch of quotes and here is the output :

1.1 DATA LIST.  Reading free-form data from INLINE.
+--------+------+
|Variable|Format|
#========#======#
|rubrique|A18   |
|value   |A32   |
+--------+------+
testdeca.sps:13: warning: BEGIN DATA: Partial case discarded.  The first variable missing was value.

          rubrique                            value
------------------ --------------------------------
S20.G01.00.017.002 31                              
S20.G01.00.017.003 32                              
S20.G01.00.018     A00                             
S30.G01.00.001                                     
xxx                S30.G01.00.002                  
                   xxx                             
S30.G01.00.003                                     



I attached the original data file in case it would contain any special chars.
