An incomplete fix for the NPE bugs in XSAttributeUseImpl.java
-------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: XERCESJ-1553
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XERCESJ-1553
             Project: Xerces2-J
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Other
            Reporter: Guangtai Liang
            Priority: Critical


The fix revision 320528 was aimed to remove an NPE bug on the "this.fDefault" 
and "this.fDefault.actualValue" in the method "getConstraintValue" of the file 
"/xerces/java/trunk/src/org/apache/xerces/impl/xs/XSAttributeUseImpl.java" , 
but it is incomplete. 
Since the "this.fDefault" is a class field and also could be null during the 
run-time execution, it should also be null-checked before being dereferenced in 
other methods. 

The buggy code locations the same fix needs to be applied at are as bellows: 


Line 123 of the method "getActualVC";
  public Object getActualVC() {
        return getConstraintType() == XSConstants.VC_NONE ?
               null :
               fDefault.actualValue;
    }


Line 129 of the method "getActualVCType": 

       public short getActualVCType() {
        return getConstraintType() == XSConstants.VC_NONE ?
               XSConstants.UNAVAILABLE_DT :
               fDefault.actualValueType;
    }

Line 135 of the method "getItemValueTypes" : 

  public ShortList getItemValueTypes() {
        return getConstraintType() == XSConstants.VC_NONE ?
               null :
               fDefault.itemValueTypes;
    }
