All,
is it part of the contract for ComponentManager.release that the component
parameter may be null?
In ExcaliburComponentManager.release the method has a test at the top:
if ( null == component )
{
return;
}
So one can write:
MyComponent myComponent = null;
try {
myComponent = manager.lookup (MyComponent.ROLE);
...
} finally {
manager.release (myComponent);
}
Instead of:
MyComponent myComponent = null;
try {
myComponent = manager.lookup (MyComponent.ROLE);
...
} finally {
if (myComponent != null) {
manager.release (myComponent);
}
}
I like this - one less "if" statement for me to forget. However, there is no
mention of this in the documentation. So my question is: Is this part of the
ComponentManager interface?
