XdmNode.getBaseURI NPE on attribute

Added by Anonymous almost 15 years ago

Calling XdmNode.getBaseURI with an Attribute node causes an NPE in Saxon 9.1 The core crash is calling new URI( null ) In XdmNode.java > Blockquote public URI getBaseURI() { try { return new URI(getUnderlyingNode().getBaseURI()); } catch (URISyntaxException e) { throw new IllegalStateException("baseURI"); } } > Blockquote

I haven't succeeded in reproducing the problem. You didn't give much information about the context; but I suspect you are working with a tree in which the base URI has not been initialized. You are presumably expecting null to be returned in this situation.

Yes and yes. I can generate a test case if you want it, but yes this was a case of a synthesized document (xquery constructed) without a base URI, and I was expecting a null instead of an NPE. I suggest public URI getBaseURI() { try { String base = getUnderlyingNode().getBaseURI(); return base == null?null : new URI(base); } catch (URISyntaxException e) { throw new IllegalStateException("baseURI"); } }
