Dennis Lundberg updated LOGGING-13:
-----------------------------------
Fix Version/s: 1.1.0
> [logging] NullPointException when Logger.getClassLoader returns null
> --------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: LOGGING-13
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOGGING-13
> Project: Commons Logging
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: Nightly Builds
> Environment: Operating System: All
> Platform: PC
> Reporter: Adam Jack
> Priority: Critical
> Fix For: 1.1.0
>
> Attachments: LogFactory.java, LogFactory.java, patch.txt, patch.txt
>
>
> getClassLoader can return null to imply the Boot Class Loader (per JDK 1.3
> documentatio at least) however unfortunately commons logging is not coded to
> support that.
> There are at least two places where this is a problem & commons logging dies
> w/
> a NullPointerException, one in a Hashtable (used as a key to factory)
> [HashMap
> allows null key, Hashtable does not] and one other more directly.
> I modified the code to use the ClassLoader.getSystemClassLoader() when a null
> was returned for Logger.getClassLoader() -- assuming ['cos I had no better
> guess/choice] that System == Boot [since there was no getBootClassLoader.]
> This
> appears to be working.
> I can send my modified code if interested.
