In this case we would be treating runtime exceptions like errors (e.g. out of memory). If we return a null then potentially we have some sort of null pointer or lack of integrity in subsequent processing due to the missing data. It would be tricky to understand that this is the root cause. If the consensus is to return a null, - would we document that null is returned for runtime errors? - we should log an error so any unexpected subsequent processing can be diagnosed. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
