Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.0-b92, mixed mode)


FULL OPERATING SYSTEM VERSION :
Not applicable; error is OS independent.

EXTRA RELEVANT SYSTEM CONFIGURATION :
Problem has nothing to do with the operating
system environment

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
Due to an apparent logic bug in
org.xml.sax.helpers.AttributesImpl.removeAttribute(),
an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundException is thrown if you
attempt to remove the first attribute of 10.




STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
1.Compile and execute my testcase
2.You will receive an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException


EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
I expect to not get an exception.

ERROR MESSAGES/STACK TRACES THAT OCCUR :
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException
        at java.lang.System.arraycopy(Native Method)
        at
org.xml.sax.helpers.AttributesImpl.removeAttribute(AttributesImpl.java:439)
        at Test.main(Test.java:15)


This bug can be reproduced always.

import org.xml.sax.helpers.AttributesImpl;

        attrs.addAttribute("","","B","CDATA","1");
        attrs.addAttribute("","","C","CDATA","1");
        attrs.addAttribute("","","D","CDATA","1");

CUSTOMER WORKAROUND :
Use an alternative implementation of the Attributes
interface.
