[jira] [Commented] (IO-641) NPE in
org.apache.commons.io.IOUtils.contentEquals(Reader, Reader) when only one
input is null
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IO-641?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16986326#comment-16986326 ]
Jochen Wiedmann commented on IO-641:
------------------------------------
Why do you consider this a bug? Throwing an NPE, if either parameter is null, makes perfect sense to me. What else should the method do?
Besides, that behaviour is even documented. Quoting the
[Javadoc API|[https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-io/javadocs/api-release/index.html]]
Throws:{{[NullPointerException|http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/lang/NullPointerException.html?is-external=true]}} - if either input is null
