SolrDispatchFilter throws NullPointerException in some cases ------------------------------------------------------------
Key: SOLR-419 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-419 Project: Solr Issue Type: Bug Components: clients - java Affects Versions: 1.2, 1.3 Environment: Tomcat 6.0/servlet Reporter: Oz Solomon Priority: Minor In the class SolrDispatchFilter, the destroy method is as follows: public void destroy() { core.close(); } The problem is when the servlet doesn't initialize properly (for example, if there is a problem in schema.xml) then core isn't initialized, and this will throw a NullPointerException. A better implementation would be: public void destroy() { if (core != null) core.close(); } -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
