> NullPointerException in MapUtils.toProperties

> Key: COLLECTIONS-516
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COLLECTIONS-516
> Project: Commons Collections
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Collection
> Affects Versions: 4.0
> Environment: Mac OS 10.9, Java 6

>
> calling MapUtils.toProperties with a map having null entries results in a NullPointerException. In this case the Map has only entry <null, null>.
> However, javadoc states "A null input will return an empty
> properties object." so (1) this should be clarified as it would
> only apply to the map reference itself, not its contents, or (2)
> an empty property object should be generated for null entries in
> the map as well.
