[jira] Commented: (AXIS2-3892) WebServiceStub crashes with
NullPointerException when web service function is called with null as
argument
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2-3892?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12610610#action_12610610 ]
Thomas Poetter commented on AXIS2-3892:
---------------------------------------
To be complete: In the function
private org.apache.axiom.soap.SOAPEnvelope toEnvelope(org.apache.axiom.soap.SOAPFactory factory,
InterActiveRequest param, boolean optimizeContent) throws org.apache.axis2.AxisFault {
this call leads to the crash because param (= null) is dereferenced:
emptyEnvelope.getBody().addChild(param.getOMElement(InterActiveRequest.MY_QNAME, factory));

> Key: AXIS2-3892
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2-3892
> Project: Axis 2.0 (Axis2)
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: codegen
> Affects Versions: 1.4
> Environment: WinXP for AXIS client + server, Rampart 1.4
> Reporter: Thomas Poetter
> Original Estimate: 24h
> Remaining Estimate: 24h
>
> Call:
> InterActiveResponse result = stub.GetInfo(null);
> Crash in:
> public InterActiveResponse GetInfo(InterActiveRequest interActiveRequest0)
> env = toEnvelope(getFactory(_operationClient.getOptions().getSoapVersionURI()),
> interActiveRequest0, // <-- value of interActiveRequest0: null => causes NullPointerException
> optimizeContent(new javax.xml.namespace.QName("https://xxx/AccountInformation", "GetInfo")));
> I know that one fix is to prevent the client to call the service with null as argument. However, I feel the client shouldn't crash in this case but return null without crashing or throw an IllegalArgumentException or a similar - less fatal and more meaningful exception than NullPointerException.
