Hi all,
Another problem with DOM support:
The method getDocumentElement will generate an exception if the DOMDocument
has no root element.
It should return null in this case.
Looking into the DOMNodeHelper class shows that
if ( (element instanceof org.w3c.dom.Element) ) {
return (org.w3c.dom.Element) element;
}
else {
// Use DOMWriter?
notSupported();
return null;
}
Will generate this exception if element is null.
So i patched the source to return null if element is null.
I do this for all other asDOMxxx methods too.
Regards,
Henner Kollmann
