Hi Phil, There were 2 problems earlier. One is that, from the native it is possible to have no printers being associated with the system(causing to return null reference) and other problem in the implementation was that there may be no network printers and still return a valid array reference containing a null string. The first problem is fixed by handling null references returned from this function and other problem was that earlier there were different base conditions, for updating the reference and use it to create the printer name array which could produce a valid reference pointing to null string. Here is the updated Webrev which fixes these problems:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~sveerabhadra/8212202/webrev.02/ The big problem was that I was not able to reproduce this problem neither at my end nor at the systems used for PIT testing. Only Sergey had produced this NPE till now.

I thought the problem to be we got an array of (say) 3 values (ie printer names) returned from native where some or all of the *values* were NULL. And I am saying we should in such a case in the native code, before returning, remove from the returned array all values that are NULL. That could result in an empty (zero length) array being returned from native but no null names .. -phil.

If it is zero we have no other option but to return null from the function. I do not think there is a way where we can always make sure we get a non-zero value considering the various system scenarios. So we should handle the null return values as well in the caller of this function I think.

You mention in the bug eval that you don't need a new test because this is already covered by the test for 8153732. If that is the case then this bugid should be added to that test. Although it also looks like there are plenty of tests that provoke this .. if all you need is a system without any printers then this is a serious regression. I am not sure I am following why doCompare() is the place to fix this. If getRemotePrinterNames() is returning NULL strings, then maybe it should not ! I suggest to fix it there. -phil.

The possible states for prevRemotePinters and currentRemotePrinters are null and valid values and they can reach those states at any time either because of network disconnect or any other OS related changes. With that in mind, this fix tries to eliminate the possible NPE cases.

I think this is a good way to do. Even without the if-else check, it does populates the prevRemotePrinters, no? if "prevRemotePrinters" is null and currentRemotePrinters is null, then no need to update. If currentRemotePrinters is null, then what is the point of using getRemotePrintersNames() to update prevRemotePrinters as currentRemotePrinters is also obtained from getRemotePrintersNames!! If "prevRemotePrinters" is null and currentRemotePrinters is not null, then doCompare() called from run() will be true and prevRemotePrinters will be populated with currentRemotePrinters. If "prevRemotePrinters" is not null and currentRemotePrinters is null, then also prevRemotePrinters will be populated with currentRemotePrinters.

If prevRemotePrinters is null and currentRemotePrinters is not null, then you update prevRemotePrinters to currentRemotePrinters as per l415 where doCompare returns true. Also, If prevRemotePrinters is not null and currentRemotePrinters is null, then also you update prevRemotePrinters to currentRemotePrinters which is the output of getRemotePrintersNames().

This fix handles the null return values of the said function. Thanks and regards, Shashi
