[erlang-questions] dbg:tracer() aborts on binary match

[Hynek Vychodil]

There is wrong escaping off topic. It should be:

parse_headers(<<"\r\n", T/binary>>, Hdr, Hdrs, Toks) ->
    parse_headers(T, <<>>, [Hdr | Hdrs], Toks).

bug() ->
    dbg:tracer(),
    dbg:p(all, call),
    dbg:tpl(?MODULE, []),
    parse_headers(<<"\r\n]">>, <<"hdr1">>, [], []).
