Mike Beckerle updated DAFFODIL-2576:
------------------------------------
Labels: beginner (was: )
> improve "no forward progress" diagnostic message
> ------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: DAFFODIL-2576
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DAFFODIL-2576
> Project: Daffodil
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Diagnostics
> Affects Versions: 3.1.0, 3.2.0
> Reporter: Mike Beckerle
> Priority: Major
> Labels: beginner
>
> Due to a user complaint that it wasn't understandable, I think we need to fix the daffodil error message about no forward progress be sure to say:
> 1) the error is about the array element
> 2) the array element that parsed successfully consumed zero data
> 3) since the array is unbounded maxOccurs, you are in an infinite loop, as any further attempt to parse will make no forward progress through the data.
