    Since there has been no response for over a year, this RFE is being rejected. Feel free to open a new one once the asked information is available. Thank you.

    Hi,

    Can you please provide a test case that demonstrates the issue you are trying to resolve via this RFE?

    Also, are you requiring:
    Null checks the address of the ODO object?
    or
    Bounds check on ODO objects in linkage section?

    Thanks.
