ShpFiles(File) constructor throws NullPointerException for certain invalid paths
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: GEOT-2194
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOT-2194
Project: GeoTools
Issue Type: Bug
Components: data shapefile
Affects Versions: 2.5.0
Reporter: Milton Jonathan
Assignee: Jesse Eichar
Priority: Trivial
Fix For: 2.5.2
Attachments: geotools-tecgraf.2.5.x.ShpFiles_findExistingFile.patch
The ShpFiles(File) constructor allows one to pass a File with an invalid patch
such as "nowhere/test.shp". In this case, its initialization routine ends up
calling findExistingFile(), which fails to see that the file's parent directory
is non-existent - it assumes that file.getParentFile() should return null if
the path is invalid. A patch is provided to fix the issue.
