[xml] XML_PARSE_HUGE not working

["Floodeenjr, Thomas" <thomas_floodeenjr mentor com>]

Hello,

 

When using libxml2-2.7.8, we called xmlReadFile( filePath, NULL, XML_PARSE_HUGE ); in our code, and it worked fine. After upgrading to libxml2-2.9.9, this no longer works, the XML_PARSE_HUGE flag is not “remembered”. However, if we hard-code ctxt->options |= XML_PARSE_HUGE; in the beginning of xmlCtxtUseOptionsInternal() in parser.c, then it works.

 

Is there a trick to getting XML_PARSE_HUGE to work without modifying parser.c?

 

Thanks,

-Tom
