Martin Elzen commented on XALANC-733: ------------------------------------- Hi Steven, thanks for looking into this! I like your proposed solution much more than the patch I was proposing. However, taking the address-of NULL... Sounds *really* likely to be undefined behavior... Maybe it would be better to either: a) do = "" // ie assign as default an empty string in the relevant XalanLocator constructor? b) define a static inline fn as part of the XalanLocator class that would return an empty string, something like: inline static const XalanDOMChar* emptyString() { return ""; } and then in the relevant XalanLocator constructor do: = emptyString() > Ensure that XalanLocator::getSystemId() and getPublicId() do not return NULL > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: XALANC-733 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XALANC-733 > Project: XalanC > Issue Type: Bug > Components: XalanC, XPathC > Affects Versions: 1.11 > Reporter: Steven J.
