Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Rhino Graveyard :: Core, defect)

Description

[Hannes Wallnoefer]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; de; rv:1.8.1.2) Gecko/20060601 Firefox/2.0.0.2 (Ubuntu-edgy)
Build Identifier: 

When none of the standard E4X implementations are available (e.g. Java 1.4 without XmlBeans), ScriptRuntime.initStandardObjects() throws a NullPointerException. A simple check for null allows Rhino to run without E4X support.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
~/j2sdk1.4.2_10/bin/java -jar build/rhino1_6R6pre/js-head.jar 

Actual Results:  
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException

Sorry, I didn't see this one and independently discovered and fixed it.  My patch is slightly different but awfully similar. :)
