Vincent Hennebert resolved BATIK-946.
-------------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
Fixed in rev. [1614177|http://svn.apache.org/r1614177].
Thanks for your patch. I've applied a slightly simpler version. The key is set
to false by default in the constructor, so IIC the only way to hit this bug is
by calling o.a.b.transcoder.TranscoderSupport.setTranscodingHints, passing it
an object that doesn't contain the key.

> Key: BATIK-946
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BATIK-946
> Project: Batik
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: SVG Rasterizer
> Affects Versions: 1.7
> Environment: Operating System: Linux
> Platform: PC
> Reporter: Christopher Heiny
> Assignee: Batik Developer's Mailing list
> Attachments: XMLAbstractTranscoder.java.patch
>
>
> In version 1.7, at line 109 of XMLAbstractTranscoder, the code assumes that a
> hint has been provided for KEY_XML_PARSER_VALIDATING, casts it to Boolean,
> and invokes the booleanValue() method. If the user has not provided this
> hint (quite likely since many of the examples and tutorials on the web omit
> this hint entirely), a null pointer exception results, causing a mysterious
> and unexplained crash.
> This bug also exists in the trunk in SVN.
> Recommendation: Either have sensible default for the case when this hint is
> null, or throw an appropriate exception with a descriptive error message.
