Wing Yew Poon commented on XMLBEANS-260:
----------------------------------------

The isSkippedAnonymousType method should only be called on a SchemaType 
instance that *is* in fact an anonymous type.


> Calling SchemaType.isSkippedAnonymousType() can throw a NPE

>             Project: XMLBeans
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: XmlObject
>    Affects Versions: Version 2.1
>         Environment: Java 1.5, Windows XP
>            Reporter: Luke Peters
>            Assignee: Wing Yew Poon
>             Fix For: Version 2.1

> If isSkippedAnonymousType()  is called on a SchemaType instance that does not 
> have _outerSchemaTypeRef set, then a NPE will be thrown. Example:
>   MyXmlBean myBean = MyXmlBean.Factory.newInstance();
>   boolean isSkipped = myBean.schemaType().isSkippedAnonymousType();  <- 
> throws a NPE
> It seems that it should return false in this instance, rather than throw an 
> exception. All this needs to fix is to add a null check. I'm not sure which 
> versions exactly are effected, but it is an issue in 2.1.
> Current code:
>     public boolean isSkippedAnonymousType()
>         { return  _outerSchemaTypeRef.get().getBaseType() == this ||
>                 _outerSchemaTypeRef.get().getContentBasedOnType() == this; }
> Potential fix:
>     public boolean isSkippedAnonymousType()
>         { return _outerSchemaTypeRef == null ? false : 
> _outerSchemaTypeRef.get().getBaseType() == this ||
>                 _outerSchemaTypeRef.get().getContentBasedOnType() == this; }
