Michele Vivoda updated JXPATH-166:
----------------------------------

    Description: 
I tried the following in a single test run in isolation:

{{JXPathContextReferenceImpl.addNodePointerFactory(new 
ContainerPointerFactory());}}

and got ExceptionInInitializer, I see a refactoring for  JXPathContext done by 
[~ggregory] in last (recent) revision 1523175. Reverting to previous 1234255 
fixes the issue. 

The refactoring contains some static-init code in JXPathContext  that creates 
an instance of a subclass of JXPathContext itself... seems to trigger one of 
the rare occasions in which a static final field might be null, as happens then 
in a JXPathContextReferenceImpl constructor where final field {{nodeFactories}} 
is null. My understanding is this: a call to any static method of 
{{JXPathContextReferenceImpl}} triggers load of {{JXPathContext}} class that 
executes static initialization code that creates a new {{JXPathContext}} that 
in turn is an other {{JXPathContextReferenceImpl}} with static final field null 
since the static initializer of its super class must still terminate. See 
something similar in http://stackoverflow.com/a/2547638/1536382 and 
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2547713/why-static-fields-are-not-initialized-in-time

My fix is either to restore the volatile lazy initializaton just for 
{{compilationContext}} or, perhaps better, just create a new context each time 
in the {{compile(xpath)} static method.
