fix(closure,HTML::Parser,open): unblock HTML-Tree 5.07 tests#559
Conversation
- dev/modules/devel_declare.md: design for Java-backed Devel::Declare + B::Hooks::OP::Check, including phased rollout and the lexer changes needed for set_linestr emulation. - dev/modules/html_element.md: detailed plan for fixing jcpan -t HTML::Element. Four root causes identified, two with immediate fixes in scope (continue-block closure capture; HTML::Parser tokens argspec).

VariableCollectorVisitor.visit(For3Node) walked initialization,
condition, increment, and body — but not continueBlock. The
selective-capture optimisation in SubroutineParser used the visitor's
output to decide which outer lexicals to attach to a sub's closure;
anything referenced *only* inside a continue block was filtered out.
The lazy compiler then failed at first call with
Global symbol "$nillio" requires explicit package name
For1Node already traversed continueBlock correctly; only the
For3Node visitor was wrong.
Discovered while running `jcpan -t HTML::Element` (HTML-Tree 5.07):
HTML::Element::look_down ends in
while (defined($this = shift @pile)) { ... }
continue { unshift @pile, ..., @{ ... || $nillio }; }
where $nillio is a file-scoped `my` variable. Four upstream tests
now pass that were previously aborting with the parser error
(attributes.t, children.t, refloop.t, whitespace.t).
Adds two regression tests to src/test/resources/unit/closure.t
covering both the anon-sub and named-sub paths.
See dev/modules/html_element.md for the full investigation and the
plan for the remaining HTML-Tree failures (HTML::Parser tokens
argspec; 2-arg open with literal-string filehandle; weak-ref refloop
which is being addressed on a separate branch).

HTMLParser.java::buildArgs handled tagname/attr/attrseq/text/dtext/
is_cdata/self/event/offset/length/line/token0 (PI-only) but had no
case for `tokens`, `tokenpos`, or `tokenN` for N>0. The default
branch silently emitted an empty scalar.
That broke the comment handler that HTML/Parser.pm itself installs
when api_version < 3:
$self->handler(comment => sub {
my ($self, $tokens) = @_;
for (@$tokens) { $self->comment($_) }
}, "self,tokens");
…with "Can't use string ('') as an ARRAY ref while strict refs in
use" — five upstream HTML-Tree tests aborted on this (comment.t,
parse.t, parsefile.t, construct_tree.t, split.t).
`tokens` produces:
start => [tagname, k1, v1, k2, v2, ...] (in attrseq order)
end => [tagname]
text/dtext => [text]
comment => [comment_body]
declaration => [declaration_body]
process => [pi_body]
`tokenN` (N >= 0) returns tokens->[N], or "" if out of range.
`token0` keeps its existing PI fast-path for processing-instruction
events.
`tokenpos` returns a parallel arrayref of [start, end] byte-offset
pairs. We don't track byte offsets yet (already noted at the
existing `offset` / `offset_end` cases, which return 0), so the
returned pairs are all [0, 0]. This is enough for callers that just
iterate the array, and matches the existing approximation we make
for `offset`.
After this fix + the For3Node continue-block fix in the previous
commit, jcpan -t HTML::Element goes from 10/23 failing files to
just 4 (oldparse.t — 2-arg open with literal-string filehandle;
refloop.t — weak-ref destruction timing; whitespace.t — appears to
hang on \xA0 input, separate issue; split.t — entity-handling diff).
The remaining bugs are tracked in dev/modules/html_element.md
Phases 3 and 4 (Phase 4 is being addressed on a different branch).
New regression test: src/test/resources/unit/html_parser_tokens.t
covers comment, start, end, tokenN, and tokenpos argspecs.

PrototypeArgs.handleTypeGlobArgument routed bareword filehandles
(open(FH, ...)) through FileHandle.parseBarewordHandle, which
autovivifies *main::FH and produces a typeglob reference. A
constant-string first argument (open("FH", ...)) fell through to
the "Bare scalars" branch and was passed in scalar context; open
then tried to write the new IO into the read-only string literal,
producing
Modification of a read-only value attempted
Now: when the first argument is a StringNode whose value is a
syntactically valid identifier (or `Pkg::Identifier`), treat it the
same as a bareword. The non-identifier case still falls through to
the scalar path, so `open(my $fh, "<", $path)` and friends are
unaffected.
Discovered via HTML-Tree 5.07 t/oldparse.t which uses
open( "INFILE", "$TestInput" ) || die "$!";
binmode INFILE;
$HTML = <INFILE>;
After this fix t/oldparse.t goes from 0/16 to 16/16. Combined with
the previous two commits on this branch, jcpan -t HTML::Element
now leaves only 3 failing files (refloop.t — weak-ref work tracked
on another branch; whitespace.t — hangs on \xA0 input;
split.t — entity-handling diff).
New regression test src/test/resources/unit/open_string_filehandle.t
covers the 2-arg, 3-arg, package-qualified, and lvalue-scalar paths.
See dev/modules/html_element.md (Phase 3, now marked completed).

…regression)
The previous commit on this branch routed any literal-string argument
in a `*` prototype slot through FileHandle.parseBarewordHandle. That
was too aggressive — the `*` prototype is generic; user-defined
`sub foo (*) { }` must pass a literal string through as a SCALAR,
matching real Perl. Doing the typeglob conversion unconditionally
broke 4 tests in perl5_t/t/comp/proto.t:
sub star (*&) { ... } # star "FOO" / star("FOO")
sub star2 (**&) { ... } # star2 "FOO", "BAR" / star2("FOO","BAR")
…where the test expects $_[0] eq 'FOO' (a plain string), not a glob
ref.
The right discriminator is "Perl built-in vs. user-defined sub":
real Perl performs the indirect-glob lookup for built-ins like
open/close/binmode/fileno/eof/select/etc. but not for user subs.
Built-ins are exactly those with a registered prototype in
ParserTables.CORE_PROTOTYPES, so we can tell them apart by checking
the current operator name against that map.
This also fixes (incidentally) similar paper cuts that were
silent-no-ops before: `close "FOO"`, `fileno "FOO"`, `binmode "FOO"`,
`eof "FOO"` now look up the typeglob correctly, matching real Perl.
Regression test extended in src/test/resources/unit/open_string_filehandle.t:
- close/fileno via string FH name match the bareword form (3 cases)
- user-defined sub with `*` prototype still receives a SCALAR (2 cases)
After this fix:
perl5_t/t/comp/proto.t 197/216 (back to baseline)
HTML-Tree t/oldparse.t 16/16 (Phase 3 preserved)
src/test/resources/unit/open_string_filehandle.t 10/10

HTML::Parser's `.pm` is shipped via CPAN, not bundled with PerlOnJava (only the Java-XS shim in HTMLParser.java lives in this repo). So `use HTML::Parser` in a unit test fails in CI, where no CPAN modules are installed in @inc. The `tokens` / `tokenN` / `tokenpos` argspec fix is already covered by the live `jcpan -t HTML::Element` run (HTML-Tree's t/comment.t, t/parse.t, t/parsefile.t, t/construct_tree.t, t/split.t exercise exactly this code path). No need for a duplicate in-tree unit test that relies on a CPAN module to be present.

Summary (WIP)
Fixes the three highest-impact bugs uncovered while investigating
./jcpan -t HTML::Element(HTML-Tree 5.07). Plan + remainingwork live in
dev/modules/html_element.md.Before this PR: 10 of 23 upstream test files fail.
After this PR: 3 of 23 fail. The remaining failures are:
refloop.t— weak-ref destruction timing (Phase 4, being handledon another branch — explicitly out of scope here);
whitespace.t— appears to hang on\xA0input (separate issue);split.t— entity-handling diff (separate issue).Bug 1 —
For3Nodecontinue block lost from closure captureVariableCollectorVisitor.visit(For3Node)walkedinitialization,condition,increment, andbody— but notcontinueBlock.The selective-capture optimisation in
SubroutineParserused thevisitor's output to decide which outer lexicals to attach to a sub's
closure; anything referenced only inside a
continue {}blockwas filtered out. The lazy compiler then failed at first call with
For1Nodealready traversedcontinueBlockcorrectly (lines 165-167);only the
For3Nodevisitor was wrong. Fix is one block.Discovered via
HTML::Element::look_down, which ends in:where
$nilliois a file-scopedmyvariable (seeHTML/Element.pmline 74 vs 2023).
Bug 2 —
