Found the bug. Basically JNDIProducer was not handling non-character
attribute data properly. Attached is the diff for the fixes. I don't know
the procedure for submitting fixes to Exolab so this will have to do . . .

Subject: [castor-dev] newbie question - DSML example experiencing a
NullPointerExceptio n
Hi,
I am just learning DSML and am playing with the DSML example. I'm seeing
some behavior that I don't understand. The test program tries to import some
<directory-entries> from a test file into an LDAP directory, then export
some entries from the same directory. If the entries that it is trying to
import are already there it "refreshes" them. I have noticed that if the
program actually ends up creating any new entries calling
JNDIExporter.export() causes the program to crash as follows:
java.lang.NullPointerException
java.lang.NullPointerException
at
org.exolab.castor.dsml.jndi.JNDIProducer.produce(JNDIProducer.java:191)
at
org.exolab.castor.dsml.jndi.JNDIProducer.produce(JNDIProducer.java:220)
at
org.exolab.castor.dsml.jndi.JNDIExporter.export(JNDIExporter.java:133)
at org.exolab.castor.dsml.Exporter.export(Exporter.java:85)
at Test.main(Unknown Source)
However if the program only ends up "refreshing" entries calling
JNDIExport.export() works. Is this a bug in the DSML implementation or am I
doing something wrong?
I am using JDK 1.3.1, castor-0.9.3, and xerces-1_4_4 against an IBM
SecureWay Directory Server (not sure on version here).
