[jstl] null pointer exception with jstl

[Henri Yandell <ba...@generationjava.com>]

I'm getting an NPE from the <c:set> method when used in Tomcat 4.1. The
particular code sees me running an <sql:query> against Oracle, then
looping over my result set and setting values in a bean.

I get the NPE when the field is NULL [in database terms]. Does anyone know
if this is a spec thing or just something dangling in the jstl code?

Looking at the code, it's the last statement in a group of if's and
else's, so I'm guessing my assumptions are stupid here.

Would look further, but got to run.
