Bug #2501

NPE supplying parentless element to XPathSelector.setContextItem
100%
Description
If the XdmItem passed to XPathSelector.setContextItem() in the s9api interface is a parentless element, an NPE occurs with the call on getDocumentRoot().isTyped().
(According to the CVS log, this code was committed on 05/08/15, which I think means 8 May rather than 5 August. The commit was described as "fix bug 2235" though the connection with that bug seems obscure. I think bug 2435 was meant. The code is attempting to prevent typed input being used with a non-schema-aware XPath expression, as this can cause some rather obscure failures.)
The bug is reported to occur in 9.6.0.7 but not in 9.6.0.6

- Status changed from New to In Progress
- Found in version set to 9.6
Patched on the 9.6 Java branch.
No patch needed on the 9.7 branch (as a result of the introduction of the TreeInfo object which exists even for parentless trees)
Patch still needed on .NET
