[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Reopened: (JBAS-4616) NamingContext lookupLink() does not acquire stub to server Naming service

NamingContext lookupLink() does not acquire stub to server Naming service ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBAS-4616 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBAS-4616 Project: JBoss Application Server Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: Naming Affects Versions: JBossAS-4.2.1.GA, JBossAS-4.2.0.GA, JBossAS-5.0.0.Beta2, JBossAS-4.0.5.GA Reporter: Brian Stansberry Assigned To: Brian Stansberry Fix For: JBossAS-5.0.0.CR1 org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContext.lookupLink(Name) does not invoke the checkRef() method before invoking on the stub to the server-side Naming object. The checkRef() method is what actually contacts the JNDI server to download the stub.. Result of this is an NPE will be thrown if an earlier call hasn't downloaded the stub before lookupLink() is called.
