---------------------------------------------------------------------
        Key: XERCESC-1291
    Summary: Off-by-one error in DOMString.cpp
       Type: Bug

     Status: Unassigned
   Priority: Major

    Project: Xerces-C++
 Components: 
             DOM
   Versions:
             2.5.0

   Assignee: 
   Reporter: Michael McMaster

    Created: Tue, 19 Oct 2004 1:26 AM
    Updated: Tue, 19 Oct 2004 1:28 AM
Environment: Tested on RedHat 8.0, gcc 3.2.3 using a source distribution of 2.5.0

Description:
The DOMString class (in the deprecated API) attempts to access past-the-end of an array in the transcode() functions.

This access was picked up with Valgrind 2.1.1. The effects of the error are uncertain (someone with more time on their hands may be willing to investigate further ?)
