Sure.
There is a bit of code that does the following while trying to set default
values:
if (getOption == null)
setOption(defaultValue).
This appears in various combinations/sequences that in some cases resembled
spagetti.
I removed the spagetti and replaced with the method below. For example,
review changes to DefaultAxisServerFactory.java

Could you explain how this would be used?
