           Summary: NPE in ResolverDirectHTTP.engineCanResolve
           Product: Security
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Signature
        AssignedTo: security-dev@xml.apache.org
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


When executing the following code using XML Security 1.4.Beta2 you'll get an
NPE. I think a better error reporting would be something like: cannot resolve 
URI.

XMLSignature signature = new XMLSignature(testDocument, null,
                                XMLSignature.ALGO_ID_SIGNATURE_RSA_SHA512,
                                Canonicalizer.ALGO_ID_C14N_WITH_COMMENTS);

Element signatureElement = signature.getElement();
Element rootElement = (Element) testDocument.getFirstChild();
rootElement.appendChild(signatureElement);

Transforms transforms = new Transforms(testDocument);
signature.addDocument("urn:unknown:uri", transforms,
    MessageDigestAlgorithm.ALGO_ID_DIGEST_SHA512);

signature.addKeyInfo(publicKey);

signature.sign(privateKey);



The NPE stack trace:
