[jira] [Updated] (MATH-1116) NullPointerException not advertized in
Javadoc
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MATH-1116?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
Gilles updated MATH-1116:
-------------------------
Priority: Minor (was: Major)
Fix Version/s: 3.3
Labels: javadoc (was: )
Summary: NullPointerException not advertized in Javadoc (was: NullPointerException in MultivariateVectorOptimizer.getWeight())
I don't think that it'necessary to open a new report if adding "@throws" tag would fix the issue.

> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 3.2
> Environment: Mac OS 10.9, Java 6, 7

> The following statement produces a NullPointerException:
> new org.apache.commons.math3.optim.nonlinear.vector.jacobian.LevenbergMarquardtOptimizer().getWeight();
> The documentation does not seem to indicate that other data must be set before getWeight is used (at least I could not find that information). In this case, weightMatrix is still null because it has not been initialized.
> This call should probably throw an IllegalStateException, which makes it clear that this API usage is incorrect.
> This test uses LevenbergMarquardtOptimizer but any instantiable subclass of MultivariateVectorOptimizer probably works the same way.
