NullPointerException
Hi,
I have a xsl:xstylesheet that crashes in both 2.6.0 and 2.7.0 with a NPE.
Heres the stack trace:

I did a search in JIRA but couldn't see anything similar. It appears to be
related to the following in my stylesheet:
<xsl:comment>
<xsl:apply-templates select="//region[@name='coveringletter']"/>
<xsl:apply-templates select="//region[@name='statement']"/>
</xsl:comment>
If I comment this out then the transform doesn't throw a NPE. My XML and
stylesheet are quite big and also confidential so I can't post it here. I
did try creating a cut down version but the NPE didnt occur. Now I realise
that it might seem like a strange thing to do, but I really need to be able
to place xsl elements inside an xsl:comment. Can anyone offer any further
insight?
Thanks,
Chris

Re: NullPointerException
Posted by cbowditch <bo...@hotmail.com>.
Hi Kevin,
thanks for the prompt reply. I have found an alternative solution to my
problem. Namely:
<xsl:template name="notused">
<xsl:apply-templates select="//region[@name='coveringletter']"/>
<xsl:apply-templates select="//region[@name='statement']"/>
</xsl:template>
The XML trees being matched by these statements is massive and full of all
sorts not just text. I wanted to find a way of having these xsl elements in
the stylesheet but to avoid them having an affect on the output! The above
solution seems to work a lot better than the xsl:comment approach.
Thanks again,
Chris

Re: NullPointerException
Posted by Kevin Cormier <kc...@ca.ibm.com>.
Hi Chris,
In your message, you said "Now I realise that it might seem like a strange
thing to do, but I really need to be able to place xsl elements inside an
xsl:comment." I'm not quite sure what you mean by that. You are allowed
to use xsl:apply-templates within a comment, but the invoked templates must
produce text nodes only. It would be an error to use xsl:element inside a
comment, though Xalan would ignore it and just not output the element.
See the XSLT 1.0 spec, section 7.4: "It is an error if instantiating the
content of xsl:comment creates nodes other than text nodes. An XSLT
processor may signal the error; if it does not signal the error, it must
recover by ignoring the offending nodes together with their content."
(http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt#section-Creating-Comments)
In any case, there should not be a NullPointerException. Please open a bug
on JIRA, and try again to whittle down the stylesheet to a small example
that you can share with us. I created a small stylesheet using the snippet
you gave, but I didn't see any NPE with it.

NullPointerException
Hi,
I have a xsl:xstylesheet that crashes in both 2.6.0 and 2.7.0 with a NPE.

I did a search in JIRA but couldn't see anything similar. It appears to be
related to the following in my stylesheet:
<xsl:comment>
<xsl:apply-templates select="//region[@name='coveringletter']"/>
<xsl:apply-templates select="//region[@name='statement']"/>
</xsl:comment>
If I comment this out then the transform doesn't throw a NPE. My XML and
stylesheet are quite big and also confidential so I can't post it here. I
did try creating a cut down version but the NPE didnt occur. Now I realise
that it might seem like a strange thing to do, but I really need to be able
to place xsl elements inside an xsl:comment. Can anyone offer any further
insight?
Thanks,
Chris
