Parsing error

[mps]

When I attempt to parse a NSString that contains a '<' or '>' then I end up getting a crash in memory (BAD_EXEC_ACCESS).

Is this a known issue?

Thanks

Example (edit to view raw text, GH formats it as markdown):

I'm not able to reproduce this. Maybe you could post a gist or some more details about what you're doing with your string? Or a stack trace?

I just experienced this issue as well, was stumped until I saw this issue. Here is the text I am using

AppName

Created by <email@someaddress.com>

@dreamwieber the problem appears to be here: https://github.com/dreamwieber/AttributedMarkdown/blob/master/markdown_output.m#L196

because it is parsing the markdown as a URL <matthew@idlefusion.com> but it is really null.

Thanks -- I'll look into it.

URL support is somewhat experimental -- it's not officially supported as an NSAttributedString attributed yet on iOS, so I think it's quite possibly the cause. I did notice that the brackets seem irrelevant to the crash. It looks like the @ symbol inside the brackets is what triggers it. (I am having a hard time deciphering the string in your example @mps )

It may be a little while until I can track this down. If you're able to build the library yourself from source, you may be able to work around it temporarily by commenting out the URL code linked to by @mps.

Just as a note I was able to get (email@somewhere.com) (with parens not angle brackets) to work as I didn't really need a link, just an email address in plaintext.

So it may not be just the @ sign but may be the combination of @.

Thanks

Thanks for the heads up

For now I have gone ahead and just replaced the appropriate strings before setting them. 👍

Definitely appears to be specifically related to the brackets AND the @ symbol.

I dug around today, but couldn't figure the root cause. I'll have to see how the peg-markdown library behaves with that input string...
