Sebb reopened IO-686:
---------------------

The problem here is that 2.8.0 behaves differently from 2.7 and previous 
versions.

2.8.0 no longer throws NPE, but this change does not appear to be documented.

I don't think fixing the Javadoc is necessarily the correct solution.

> IOUtils.toByteArray(InputStream) Javadoc does not match code
> ------------------------------------------------------------

>  * @throws NullPointerException if the input is null

> public static byte[] toByteArray(final InputStream input) throws IOException {
>     try (final ByteArrayOutputStream output = new ByteArrayOutputStream()) {
>         copy(input, output);
>         return output.toByteArray();
>     }
> } {code}
> This can be recreated by the following:
> {code:java}
> @Test
> public void shouldThrowNullPointerException() {
>     assertThrows(NullPointerException.class, () -> 
> IOUtils.toByteArray((InputStream) null))
> } {code}
> On v2.7 the test passes, on v2.8.0 it fails.
