Fredrik Wendt updated XMLRPC-186:
---------------------------------
Attachment: ControllerThreadSocketFactoryTest.java
Cleanup of test.
> NullPointerException thrown for illegal port numbers
> ----------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: XMLRPC-186
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XMLRPC-186
> Project: XML-RPC
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Source
> Affects Versions: 3.1.3
> Reporter: Fredrik Wendt
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: ControllerThreadSocketFactoryTest.java,
> ControllerThreadSocketFactoryTest.java, XMLRPCClientTest.java
>
>
> When you try to use an XmlRpcClient with an address containing an illegal
> port number (>65535), you get a NullPointerException. After debugging I see
> that the constructor call to java.net.InetSocketAddress throws a good
> exception: IllegalArgumentException("port out of range"), but this is
> silently ignored and null is returned from ReflectionSocketFactory.
> I suggest adding:
> if (cause instanceof IllegalArgumentException) {
> throw (IllegalArgumentException) cause;
> }
> to give users of XmlRpcClient better error messages.
