[jira] [Updated] (OAK-9801) Many SessionImpl operations just log a NPE if null values provided

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OAK-9801?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Joerg Hoh updated OAK-9801:
---------------------------
    Description: 
Many operations of {{SessionImpl}} require non-null parameters and ensure this by using the {{checkNotNull}} method of Google Commons.

If actually provided a null value, it can look like this:
{noformat}
org.apache.sling.engine.impl.SlingRequestProcessorImpl service: Uncaught Throwable
java.lang.NullPointerException: null
    at org.apache.jackrabbit.oak.jcr.session.SessionImpl.getNamespaceURI(SessionImpl.java:788) [org.apache.jackrabbit.oak-jcr:1.42.0]
{noformat}

This NPE because of the failed validation is non-distinguishable from a "regular" NPE. We should use the version of {{checkNotNull}} which allows to provide an error string to indicate that the parameter validation failed.
