Description

(Manually transferred from Bugzilla#28385 Please address questions to original reporter [e-mail])

There is a possible bug in Xerces-C 2.4.0 on linux platforms. This doesn't occur with solaris.

The next small program code generates a segmentation fault:

#include <xercesc/util/PlatformUtils.hpp>
#include <xercesc/util/XMLString.hpp>
#include <xercesc/dom/DOM.hpp>
#include <xercesc/framework/MemBufInputSource.hpp>

static const char *xml_buff =
"<?xml version='1.0' encoding='ISO-8859-1' ?><root></root>";

using namespace xercesc;

int main( int argc, char *argv[] )
{
XMLPlatformUtils::Initialize( "es_ES" );

MemBufInputSource
memDoc( (XMLByte *) xml_buff, strlen( xml_buff ), "tmp.xml", false );

XMLPlatformUtils::Terminate();
return 0;
}

If I alloc the MemBufInputSource with new, there is no problem.

Thanks and best regards
