Weekly report-August 22,2023

This week we mainly completed the null pointer bug fix in the IBAX JSON-RPC module. In the previous code, when calling the JSONRPC interface to retrieve data, there was a possibility of returning a null pointer, which caused the program to crash when accessing the null pointer afterward.

To fix this issue, we added validation on the return values of the JSON-RPC, directly returning an error instead of a null pointer when the result is empty. At the same time, logging was added, printing warnings when a null pointer is detected, to facilitate tracking the problem.

After the fix, we repeatedly tested calling the JSON-RPC interfaces to retrieve data in various situations, confirming that in all cases normal handling is now ensured, no longer returning null pointers thus avoiding the program crash issue. The bug fix enhances the stability and robustness of the IBAX JSON-RPC module.
