Bug 147809 Null pointer exception if the table name contains spaces
Reported: 2006-06-19 19:31:04 | Status: resolved fixed

The null pointer exception will be thrown if the table name contains spaces when calling the method: public String[] getTableComplexNestedXMLColumnNames( String tableName ) { return ( (TableInfo) this.tableInfos.get( tableName ) ).getComplexNestXMLColumnNames(); } In the org.eclipse.birt.report.data.oda.xml.util. RelationInformation.java The table name was stripped before adding it to the tableInfos, however if the tableName of this method is not a stripped string, then it will cause the null pointer exception.
