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));


> WebServiceStub crashes with NullPointerException when web service function is 
> called with null as argument

>             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.
