Description Missing name

2011-06-15 09:28:07 EDT

Build Identifier: 20110218-0911

Driver Sybase ASE 15
Connection properties set without Dadabase Name to show all databases on this Server.
This works fine for most of the DBs on this server, but when exploring some of the DBs by expanding Tables Node - it throws an Nullpointer
Maybe there are some characters which are not compatible or missing information on the tables.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Connect DataSource Explorer to a Sybase ASE 15 Server with multiple DBs
2. Explore DB by expanding the Tables node
3. on some of the DB's it throws an error, its always on the same DB's, others run fine. (I guess that there are some naming conventions or missing info)

Note: the "same" DB Table node can be expanded on a different Testserver. So i guess it failes because of some data retrieved from the server. Probably "missing/expected" data (i.e owner, description) on your first Testserver.
