-----------------------------------------
It is worth having a look into the rules defined by Axis C++ project in AXISCPP-318
> Validate pointers before use - review code and fix
> --------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: AXIS2C-14
> URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2C-14
> Project: Axis2-C
> Type: Bug
> Reporter: Samisa Abeysinghe
> Priority: Critical
> Fix For: M0.3
>
> While doing integration testing, I came to notice that one of the key probloems causing the runtime crashes is the use of pointers without validating.
> It is a must that we init all pointers to NULL and also test the pointers before use to make sure they have valid content.
> This was also mentioned in coding convention.
> I think we have to review the code and fix, else the engine would crash unexpectedly and it would be hard to figure out the causes.
