>      Project: Harmony
>         Type: Bug

> Currently Harmony matches the 1.4 reference implementations behaviour with respect to exceptions but it should match the 5.0 RI behaviour which means:
> Signature.getInstance((String)null,(String)null):
>   RI throws j.l.NullPointerException but Harmony throws j.l.IllegalArgumentException
> Signature.getInstance((String)null,""):
>   RI throws j.l.NullPointerException but Harmony throws j.l.IllegalArgumentException
> Signature.getInstance((String)null,(Provider)null):
>   RI throws j.l.NullPointerException but Harmony throws j.l.IllegalArgumentException
> In other words, the order of the algorithm and providor validations should be reversed.
> I will attach a patch shortly.
