some methods in java.util.Collections don't throw NPE when the parameter is null ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HARMONY-93 URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HARMONY-93 Project: Harmony Type: Bug Components: Classlib Reporter: Svetlana Samoilenko According to j2se 1.4.2 and 1.5 specification for the Collections class "The methods of this class all throw a NullPointerException if the collections provided to them are null". Harmony does not throw NPE for some methods. Code to reproduce: import java.util.*; public class test2 { public static void main(String [] args) { SortedMap m = null; Map map=null; Set set=null; SortedSet sortedset=null; SortedMap sortedmap =null; Collection col=null; try { Collections.synchronizedCollection(col); System.out.println("synchronizedCollection(null) must throw NPE"); } catch (NullPointerException e) { System.out.println("PASSED"); } try { Collections.synchronizedSortedMap(sortedmap); System.out.println("synchronizedSortedMap(null) must throw NPE"); } catch (NullPointerException e) { System.out.println("PASSED"); } try { Collections.synchronizedMap(map); System.out.println("synchronizedMap(map) must throw NPE"); } catch (NullPointerException e) { System.out.println("PASSED"); } try { Collections.synchronizedSet(set); System.out.println("synchronizedSet(set) must throw NPE"); } catch (NullPointerException e) { System.out.println("PASSED"); } try { Collections.synchronizedSortedSet(sortedset); System.out.println("synchronizedSortedSet(null) must throw NPE"); } catch (NullPointerException e) { System.out.println("PASSED"); } try { Collections.unmodifiableCollection(col); System.out.println("unmodifiableCollection(null) must throw NPE"); } catch (NullPointerException e) { System.out.println("PASSED"); } try { Collections.unmodifiableMap(map); System.out.println("unmodifiableMap(null) must throw NPE"); } catch (NullPointerException e) { System.out.println("PASSED"); } try { Collections.unmodifiableSet(set); System.out.println("unmodifiableSet(null) must throw NPE"); } catch (NullPointerException e) { System.out.println("PASSED"); } try { Collections.unmodifiableSortedMap(sortedmap); System.out.println("unmodifiableSortedMap(null) must throw NPE"); } catch (NullPointerException e) { System.out.println("PASSED"); } try { Collections.unmodifiableSortedSet(sortedset); System.out.println("unmodifiableSortedSet(null) must throw NPE"); } catch (NullPointerException e) { System.out.println("PASSED"); } } } Steps to Reproduce: 1. Build Harmony (check-out on 2006-01-30) j2se subset as described in README.txt. 2. Compile test2.java using BEA 1.4 javac > javac -d . test2.java 3. Run java using compatible VM (J9) > java -showversion test2 Output: C:\tmp>C:\jrockit-j2sdk1.4.2_04\bin\java.exe -showversion test2 java version "1.4.2_04" Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.2_04-b05) BEA WebLogic JRockit(TM) 1.4.2_04 JVM (build ari-31788-20040616-1132-win-ia32, Native Threads, GC strategy: parallel) PASSED PASSED PASSED PASSED PASSED PASSED PASSED PASSED PASSED PASSED C:\tmp>C:\harmony\trunk\deploy\jre\bin\java -showversion test2 (c) Copyright 1991, 2005 The Apache Software Foundation or its licensors, as applicable. synchronizedCollection(null) must throw NPE synchronizedSortedMap(null) must throw NPE synchronizedMap(map) must throw NPE synchronizedSet(set) must throw NPE synchronizedSortedSet(null) must throw NPE unmodifiableCollection(null) must throw NPE unmodifiableMap(null) must throw NPE unmodifiableSet(null) must throw NPE unmodifiableSortedMap(null) must throw NPE unmodifiableSortedSet(null) must throw NPE Suggected fix and test in attachment. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
