In the case of files, sure, it's fine. The error gives me the offset, and I can go pull it out and buffer it, and it's fine. Plus XML is strict about having only one document per file.
For streams, none of this is applicable. I can't seek in a streaming network connection. If the parser leaves it in an unusable state, then I lose everything that may follow. It makes Python unusable in certain, not very rare, cases of network programming.
I'll just add that Haskell's Parsec does this right, and should be used as an example. |
