             Summary: Missing null check for arguments in MessageFormat.format() in XmlStreamReader.java
                 Key: IO-541
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IO-541
             Project: Commons IO
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Streams/Writers
            Reporter: Nikhil Shinde
            Priority: Minor


From the documentation and implementation of XmlStreamReader class, all the encoding variables passed as arguments in MessageFormat.format() can have null value. There is no mention of allowing null values for Object arguments[] in format method, 
Current implementation does not perform null check for all the arguments passed in format method.

In XmlStreamReader.calculateHttpEncoding(), All the parameters can have have null values, from implementation it is clear that null check is missing for parameters.
