[jira] [Created] (TAP5-2059) Bridging to undefined clojure methods may throw NullPointerException

Jochen Kemnade created TAP5-2059:
------------------------------------

             Summary: Bridging to undefined clojure methods may throw NullPointerException
                 Key: TAP5-2059
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAP5-2059
             Project: Tapestry 5
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: tapestry-clojure
    Affects Versions: 5.3.6, 5.4
            Reporter: Jochen Kemnade
            Priority: Minor
         Attachments: 0001-Throw-an-exception-if-the-retrieved-Clojure-var-for-.patch

When bridging to an undefined clojure method, the `Var` lookup will return `null`. When this `null` is injected into the `PlasticField`, either an `AssertionError` will be thrown, or, if assertions are disabled, a `NullPointerException` will eventually be thrown from somewhere deep in the generated bytecode. A meaningful exception would be better in that case.
