SchemaIndexImpl has problems if XSDSchema.getSchemaForSchema() returns null
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: GEOT-2961
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOT-2961
             Project: GeoTools
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: data wfs, ext xml-xsd
    Affects Versions: 2.6.1
            Reporter: Milton Jonathan
             Fix For: 2.6.2


Problems were seen with a particular WFS server when trying to access its data 
using the GeoTools WFS DataStore (unfortunately, the server is not a public one 
for you guys to test).

What happens is that SchemaIndexImpl seems to get into trouble (ending in a 
NPE) because that server returns XSDSchemas that do not have a "Schema For 
Schema" (which I admit not to know what it is).

The problems seem to start in SchemaIndexImpl's constructor: it receives an 
array of schemas and creates interally a copy of the array with one extra 
entry, computed by calling "schemas[0].getSchemaForSchema()" (I have no idea 
why). In this case, it ends up that this last entry remains null. As such, a 
NPE ends up being thrown by its own buildElementIndex() method, which never 
checks for a null schema in the array.

It is not clear if it is the server's fault that there is an XSDSchema without 
a "Schema for Schema". In any case, GeoTools should probably shield itself from 
that kind of behavior.
