Incorrect usage of Iterator.next method --------------------------------------- Key: HHH-5745 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-5745 Project: Hibernate Core Issue Type: Bug Components: core Affects Versions: 3.6.0 Reporter: Suresh Thummalapenta Priority: Minor We developed a mining-based approach that recovers specifications for APIs of JavaSDK and uses those specifications to detect defects statically. In our study, we found that at various places, return checks are missing in the core component of Hibernate. It would be great if you could analyze and fix those issues. It would be good to have a condition check on hasNext() before invoking getColumnIterator().next(), since the next() method can throw NoSuchElementExcetion if there are no elements. currently, it is missing in the following places: Class: AbstractEntityPersister.java method: AbstractEntityPersister, Line: 511 Class: SimpleValue.java Method: createIdentifierGenerator, Line: 165 Class: SingleTableEntityPersister.java Method: SingleTableEntityPersister, Line: 294 Class: Table.java Method: sqlCreateString, Line: 398 -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/secure/Administrators.... - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
