Compare Table Data Error

[Roeland]

This post is a continuation of Compare Table Data Error

This issue is still not resolved in PL/SQL Dev 9.0.0.1601

Still Access violations on empty xmltype columns.

Problem is that this is crashing the whole program. So I need to restart the instance on occurrence.

Will this issue be addressed in the next patch release? And when can we expect this new patch release?

Problem Description:
"Comparing Table Data" where some xmltype fields are empty is still not working.

In fact it is getting worse.
In version 9.0.2.1621 it "only" gives access violations, but it did this pretty soon without locking the whole application.

In this most recent version, the whole application is frozen and after waiting a pretty long time it returned me an Access Violation.
This for comparing a table with 50 records and 10 fields (1 xmltype).

We are using XML's quite heavy, not only for data exchange, but also for the generation, processing and manipulation of data. We even use xml as template for some applications.

Comparing this data (its only text) should not fail on some fields that are null.

Please fix this issue.
