[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (JGRP-1988) MessageDispatcher::sendMessageWithFuture with RequestOptions null

MessageDispatcher::sendMessageWithFuture with RequestOptions null ----------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JGRP-1988 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JGRP-1988 Project: JGroups Issue Type: Enhancement Affects Versions: 3.6.6 Reporter: matias sm Assignee: Bela Ban Priority: Minor Fix For: 3.6.7 In MessageDispatcher::sendMessageWithFuture there are some validations to check the case of RequestOptions options being null. However, if one calls that method with a null RequestOptions argument, the execution ends in failure (with a NPE in the resulting future) [1]. The point is, either the validations are unnecessary and should exist a preconditions check at the beginning of the method, or it should set a (documented) default RequestOptions so the sending can be completed. [1] the source of the NPE is UnicastRequest::sendRequest when trying to access the RequestOptions's getMode method.
