[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (JGRP-892) ConnectionMap.createServerSocket(): throw an exception if socket cannot be created

ConnectionMap.createServerSocket(): throw an exception if socket cannot be created ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JGRP-892 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JGRP-892 Project: JGroups Issue Type: Task Affects Versions: 2.6.7, 3.0.10 Reporter: Bela Ban Assignee: Vladimir Blagojevic Priority: Minor Fix For: 2.6.8 Currently, this method returns null, and unless the caller checks for null, we'll have an NPE later. SOLUTION: throw an exception if the socket cannot be created. TODO: check Util.createServerSocket()/createSocket()/createDatagramSocket() as well and see whether we need to throw an exception there, too.
