Thomas Neidhart resolved COLLECTIONS-402.
-----------------------------------------
Resolution: Invalid
> Inconsistent Javadoc comment and code in intersection(List list1,List
> list2)in org.apache.commons.collections.ListUtils
> -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: COLLECTIONS-402
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COLLECTIONS-402
> Project: Commons Collections
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Collection
> Affects Versions: 3.2.1
> Environment: Platform Independent
> Reporter: SHIN HWEI TAN
> Fix For: 4.0
>
> Original Estimate: 0.05h
> Remaining Estimate: 0.05h
>
> The Javadoc comment below states that the method "throws NullPointerException
> if either list is null".
> /*......
> *
> * @throws NullPointerException if either list is null
> */
> public static List intersection(final List list1, final List list2)
> ..
> }
> However, when called with a null list1 and an empty list2(i.e.,
> "intersection((List)null, new ArrayList())"), the method executes normally
> without throwing any exception.
> Suggested Fixes:
> 1. Add code "if (list1 == null) throw NullPointerException();" at the
> beginning of the method body.
> or
> 2. Remove "@throws NullPointerException if either list is null" from the
> Javadoc.
> or
> 3. Change "@throws NullPointerException if either list is null" to "@throws
> NullPointerException if list2 is null or (the list2 is non-empty and the
> list1 is null)".
