Steve Briskin updated HTTPCLIENT-1746:
--------------------------------------
    Summary: URLEncodedUtils.parse(String, CharSet) in 4.4 causes an NPE on 
null input and is not backward compatible  (was: URLEncoderUtils.parse(String, 
CharSet) in 4.4 causes an NPE on null input and is not backward compatible)

> In 4.2 and 4.3, {{URLEncoderUtils.parse(String, CharSet)}} returns an empty 
> List for a null String input.  
> In 4.4, {{URLEncoderUtils.parse(null, Charset.forName("UTF-8"))}} throws an 
> NullPointerException.
> For the sake of API backward compatibility, parse(String, CharSet) should 
> return an empty list.
> Note that parse(String, CharSet, char...) does the null check and returns an 
> empty list.  I think parse(String, CharSet) should have the same behavior.
