[jira] [Updated] (OPENJPA-2206) Bad practice - Method with Boolean
return type returns explicit null
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OPENJPA-2206?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
James Carman updated OPENJPA-2206:
----------------------------------
Description:
FindBugs is reporting this error on our enhanced classes. The pcIsDetached() method appears to be the culprit. Details about the error:
A method that returns either Boolean.TRUE, Boolean.FALSE or null is an accident waiting to happen. This method can be invoked as though it returned a value of type boolean, and the compiler will insert automatic unboxing of the Boolean value. If a null value is returned, this will result in a NullPointerException.
