Hiranya Jayathilaka commented on XERCESJ-1351:
----------------------------------------------

I was able to reproduce the scenario Michael has commented on. The issue is in 
the following code snippet from the XPath20 class.

                aug1 = attributes.getAugmentations(fLHS);
                if (aug1 == null) {
                    return false;
                }

                attr1 = (AttributePSVImpl) 
aug1.getItem(Constants.ATTRIBUTE_PSVI);
                type1 = (XSSimpleTypeDecl) attr1.getTypeDefinition();
                variety = type1.getVariety();

Here the attr1.getTypeDefinition() returns null causing a NullPointerException 
in the next line. I ran some debug sessions and it seems the type declaration 
property of the attribute (type attribute) is set as null by the parser. Does 
anybody know the reason for this? Could it be because the attribute is defined 
as a child of an <extension> element?

> I am running the latest Xerces-J development code from SVN repository. I

> When I apply validation using the above examples, with Xerces, I get 
> following errors:
> [Error] person.xsd:11:69: s4s-elt-must-match.1: The content of 'ADDRESS' must 
> match (annotation?, (simpleType
> | complexType)?, alternative*, (unique | key | keyref)*)). A problem was 
> found starting at: alternative.
> [Error] person.xml:5:45: cvc-complex-type.2.3: Element 'ADDRESS' cannot have 
> character [children], because the
>  type's content type is element-only.
> [Error] person.xml:5:45: cvc-complex-type.2.4.b: The content of element 
> 'ADDRESS' is not complete. One of '{st
> reet1}' is expected.
> It seems to me, that type alternative support in Xerces is not working as 
> expected.
> Some comments about the Java class, org.apache.xerces.impl.xpath.XPath20 
> (which I think is used by type alternatives)
> The method, 
> public boolean  evaluateNodeTest(QName element, XMLAttributes attributes) 
> doesn't use the parameter, "element" anywhere in the method body.
> Please correct me, on any of the points I have mentioned.
