Summary: CDATA Sections is not parsed Properly

Initial Comment:
When Expat encounters CDATA, it should parse it as a 
CDATA, but it's parsing normally

Just to be clear, are you saying that you have registered 
both, a StartCDATASectionHandler and an 
EndCDATASectionHandler, and when Expat encounters a 
CDATA section it only calls the start handler, but not the end 
handler?

I don't know whether to enter a new bug or simply ask that 
this one be re-opened so I'll first comment here.

I have discovered a problem with CdataEnd event in that the 
close tag of the CDATA block is somehow "lost."

I am using XML::Simple in a perl script to parse XML and 
modify the content element of certain nodes. The closing 
CDATA tag (]]>) "disappears" when reading in the file.

I can provide sample data and a script if that would help.

The version of Expat I have verified this with is 1.95.1 and it 
is consistent across platforms. Cygwin and RedHat Linux 6.2 
with this version of expat installed exhiit the same behavior. 

I'd tend to think it was my script but the script doesn't try 
any manipulation of the incoming XML other than to 
manipulate data within an XML::Simple hash datastructure 
before writing out the XML. 

The end tags for any CDATA are lost even before the data 
manipulation occurs.

Closed, because the original bug report is too unspecific,
and the poster did not follow up on requests for more detail.

CDATA sections work fine for me.
I have no idea what you mean - can you be more specific?
