[jira] Commented: (XERCESC-1866) Crash with regular expression

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XERCESC-1866?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12781186#action_12781186 ] 

David Bertoni commented on XERCESC-1866:
----------------------------------------

Sorry, I've been traveling for work, and haven't been able to to much for the last month. Yes, this is a temporary fix, but the permanent fix will break binary and API compatibility, so it will need to wait.

> when I run the following test code my application crashes on the second regEx.matches call:
> {
>   XMLBuffer optionsBuf;
>   optionsBuf.append('i');
>   optionsBuf.append('H');
>   RegularExpression regEx(L"^\\W*Excel\\W*$", optionsBuf.getRawBuffer());
>   regEx.matches("Excel");
> }
> {
>   XMLBuffer optionsBuf;
>   optionsBuf.append('i');
>   optionsBuf.append('H');
>   RegularExpression regEx(L"^\\W*Excel\\W*$", optionsBuf.getRawBuffer());
>   regEx.matches("Excel");
> }
> some details I found during debugging:
> - there is an instance of RangeToken where I have no idea where this is created. I've set a breakpoint in the constructor but the debugger does not stop.
> - when RangeToken::getCaseInsensitiveToken is called a new RangeToken is created and stored in fCaseIToken
> - when parsing is finished the newly created RangeToken is deleted (through ~RegularExpression -> ~TokenFactory), but the original RangeToken (where I don't know where it is created) still exists and references the deleted RangeToken in fCaseIToken
> - the next time RangeToken::getCaseInsensitiveToken is called the invalid reference fCaseIToken is returned and this leads to a crash when it is accessed.
