Eirik Bakke updated NETBEANS-407:
---------------------------------
Description:
In the following example, the "boolean foo = k instanceof Integer" assignment
causes a spurious "Dereferencing possible null pointer" warning to occur on the
"k.doubleValue()" expression. I believe this did not happen in earlier NetBeans
versions (pre-8.2). Note that if the assignment to "boolean foo" is replaced by
an if statement ("if (k instanceof Integer)"), the warning goes away.
{code:java}
public class TestClass {
private Number getFoo() {
return 3;
}
public void testFoo() {
Number k = getFoo();
// The warning only occurs if this assignment is present.
boolean foo = k instanceof Integer;
// Warning on .doubleValue() here: "Dereferencing possible null pointer"
System.out.println(k.doubleValue());
}
}
{code}
This bug was previously described at
