If a DFDL schema has multiple branches and two branches at the same depth share properties such as selector or terminator but one branch is a complex type and the other is a simple type then a NullPointerException can be seen if an EscapeScheme is used.
Local fix
Problem summary
**************************************************************** USERS AFFECTED: All users of IBM Integration Bus v9 and v10 who use DFDL schemas with complex and simple elements. Platforms affected: MultiPlatform **************************************************************** PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: In a DFDL schema, if a simple element and a complex element occur at the same level in a message, and they share the same set of text properties (such as terminator, encoding, escape scheme, etc), and the escape scheme is set, and the complex element occurs before the simple element in the message, then the simple element will not be parsed correctly. In IBM Integration Bus, the simple element is parsed but the escape scheme is not applied which, if the element is escaped, may cause a parse error or unexpected characters in the infoset. There are a number of resource name changes between WebSphere Message Broker and IBM Integration Bus Version 9.0.
