PVS-Studio warning V527 for TPP

RAMPREAL *readPeaks(RAMPFILE *pFI,
      ramp_fileoffset_t lScanIndex)
{
  ...
  else
  {
    const char* pEndAttrValue;
    pEndAttrValue =
      strchr(pBeginData + strlen("contentType=\"") + 1, '\"');
    pEndAttrValue  = '\0';
    fprintf(stderr, "%s Unsupported content type\n",
            pBeginData);
    return NULL;
  }
  ...
}

This is what should have been written here: *pEndAttrValue = '\0';


This suspicious code was found in TPP project by PVS-Studio static code analyzer.
Warning message is:
V527 It is odd that the '\0' value is assigned to 'char' type pointer. Probably meant: *pEndAttrValue = '\0'. tpplib ramp.cpp 1856
