Jörg Prante commented on XALANJ-2527:
-------------------------------------
This issue can happen in JDK 6 if an Attribute is created with SAX
AttributeImpl addAttribute() method and a "type" string argument of null. In
subsequent calls, when expressions like @* are evaluated, the attribute's type
is used with getType() but without a null check and NPE will occur.
In JDK 6, there is no sanity check in AttributeImpl to prevent null types for
attributes as it seems.
Fix: if no "type" for an attribute can be defined, always pass explicit "CDATA"
as an addAttribute() "type" string argument, and override JDK6
TransformerFactory with Xalan 2.7.1 for correct @* attribute evaluation.

> This happens in Sun JDK 1.6.0, so perhaps it should go to JDK's issue tracker.
> STR:
> 1) Get the attached source, compile it
> 2) Get the other files
> 3) Run `java Xslt pom.xml addJBossRepo.xsl pom2.xml`
> You'll get the NPE.
