[jira] Resolved: (XERCESC-263) Static DOMStrings wont initialize from char data

[xe...@xml.apache.org]

Message:

   The following issue has been resolved as WON'T FIX.

As stated in the doc, Initialize() must be called before any other call to a Xerces API/object. If we called Initialize() under the cover as you suggested, we would have memory leaks (as the number of calls to Terminate() would not match any more the calls to Initialize() ) and a lot of checks+initialize would be added to several places, making the code bigger and slower.

        Key: XERCESC-263
    Summary: Static DOMStrings wont initialize from char data
       Type: Bug

     Status: Resolved
 Resolution: WON'T FIX

    Project: Xerces-C++
 Components: 
             DOM
   Versions:
             1.5.2

Environment: Operating System: All
Platform: All

Description:
Static DOMString (const char*) will call getDomConverter(),
which crashes in case XMLPlatformUtils::fgTransService
is not initialized by XMLPlatformUtils::Initialize().
It is usually hard to assure that the last one is called before
of all constructors, if even possible.

proposed change:

XMLLCPTranscoder*  getDomConverter()
{
    if (!gDomConverter)
    {
//to add---->
        if(!XMLPlatformUtils::fgTransService)
            XMLPlatformUtils::Initialize();
//      <---------
