Rob Walker commented on FELIX-3160: ----------------------------------- Might take me a couple of days to get to it but will see if I can figure what sequence of start, restart and uninstall are needed to trigger this every time. > NPE in BundleRevisionImpl.close() when uninstalling a bundle > ------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: FELIX-3160 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-3160 > Project: Felix > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Framework > Affects Versions: framework-4.0.0 > Reporter: Rob Walker > Assignee: Rob Walker > Priority: Minor > Fix For: framework-4.2.0 > > > There seems to be a case where m_content can be null when uninstalling a > bundle, causing the following code to throw an NPE: > synchronized void close() > { > try > { > resolve(null); > } > catch (Exception ex) > { > ((BundleImpl) m_bundle).getFramework().getLogger().log( > Logger.LOG_ERROR, "Error releasing revision: " + > ex.getMessage(), ex); > } > > m_content.close(); > I've added a simple check for null around the close in my version to avoid > the exception, which I'll check in. > I'm not sure of the scenarios where this can legally be null at this point, > and whether there's some nastier underlying circumstance that needs > investigating. We see it under the following circumstances: > * we register a listener that looks for framework STARTED > * when triggered, this iterates all bundles and performs an uninstall on ones > which we determine are zombies leftover from a previous run > Aside from the fact we're calling uninstall from inside an event handling > method, there doesn't anything else unusual about this code. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
