[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Reopened: (JBAS-5475) NullPointerException when no invoker proxy bindings configured

NullPointerException when no invoker proxy bindings configured -------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBAS-5475 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBAS-5475 Project: JBoss Application Server Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: EJB2 Affects Versions: JBossAS-4.2.2.GA Environment: RHEL 4 JDK 1.6 Reporter: Dan Ciarniello Assigned To: Adrian Brock Fix For: JBossAS-4.2.3.GA When no invoker proxy bindings are configured, org.jboss.metadata.BeanMetaData.getInvokerBindings() returns a NullPointerException. This is caused by the fix for JBAS-4444. org.jboss.metadata.ConfigurationMetaData.getInvokers() used to return a zero-length array when no bindings were configured but it now returns a null value which BeanMetaData.getInvokerBindings() does not properly handle: public Iterator getInvokerBindings() { if (invokerBindings == null) { // See if there is a container default invoker name String[] defaultNames = configuration.getInvokers(); if (defaultNames.length > 0) // Line 263 NPE { invokerBindings = new HashMap(); for (int count = 0; count < defaultNames.length; count++) { invokerBindings.put(defaultNames[count], getJndiName()); } } else { // Use the hard-coded defaults defaultInvokerBindings(); } } return invokerBindings.keySet().iterator(); } Changing line 263 to if(defaultNames!=null && defaultNames.length()>0) would eliminate the NPE.
