https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=24769 Bug ID: 24769 Summary: SVG Path BNF is ambigious Product: SVG Version: SVG 2.0 Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: Paths Assignee: schepers@w3.org Reporter: jcgregorio@google.com QA Contact: www-svg@w3.org http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG2/single-page.html#paths-PathDataBNF There is no description in the text on how this BNF is to be used. For example, are the rules for the BNF alternatives to be parsed as 'first match wins'? If so, then the following rules won't produce good results, as the may match part of a floating point number as an integer before matching the floating-point-constant rule: nonnegative-number: integer-constant | floating-point-constant number: sign? integer-constant | sign? floating-point-constant If the BNF is intended to be 'first match wins' then these rules should be written as: nonnegative-number: floating-point-constant | integer-constant number: sign? floating-point-constant | sign? integer-constant This is also true of SVG 1.1 and 1.2 Tiny. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the QA Contact for the bug.
