> Key: DERBY-5452
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-5452
> Project: Derby
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Test
> Affects Versions: 10.9.0.0
> Reporter: Knut Anders Hatlen
> Assignee: Knut Anders Hatlen
> Priority: Minor

>
> NsTest.printException() contains the following piece of code:
> if (e.getMessage().equals(null)) {
> System.out.println("NULL error message detected");
> System.out.println("Here is the NULL exection - " + e.toString());
> System.out.println("Stack trace of the NULL exception - ");
> e.printStackTrace(System.out);
> }
> It's supposed to detect if e.getMessage() returns null. However, if it does return null, calling equals() on the return value will result in a NullPointerException.
> The condition should be changed to (e.getMessage() == null).
