Body:
The deallocate() method should handle a NULL argument; can you attach the code showing
the crash?

Here is an overview of the issue:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: XERCESC-1241
Summary: XMLFormatter attempts to deallocate unallocated memory
Type: Bug
Status: Unassigned
Priority: Major
Project: Xerces-C++
Components:
Utilities
Versions:
2.5.0
Assignee:
Reporter: D. North
Created: Thu, 8 Jul 2004 12:57 PM
Updated: Thu, 8 Jul 2004 1:07 PM
Environment: Not needed
Description:
In line 399 of framework/XMLFormatter.cpp, there is the statement:
fMemoryManager->deallocate(fAposRef); //delete [] fAposRef;
Unfortunately, in order for this to succeed without sigsegv'ng, fAposRef must be
non-null, which is [apparently] possible only if the right stuff has been passed into
a call to XMLFormatter::formatBuf(...
Reference XERCESC-71 for a related change in this area.
I can provide sample code that demonstrates the failure if needed.
Regards.
David.
