No problem and sorry for the delay, its been a rough few weeks for me with house problems.

I probably wont get 4.0.7 cut until this evening so if you get a chance to test out the change I just pushed that would be great.

Yes, that's exactly why I wanted someone to confirm the patch. Both portlet spec and API docs are a bit vague regarding this point, but your explanation seems reasonable.

Thank you for your time, this was very important to us.

    Sorry, I meant to reply to this.

    The problem is the spec PDF and the JavaDocs aren't perfectly
    clear. In PLT.17.1 the spec says "Preference attributes are String
    array objects. Preferences attributes can be set to null"

    I agree with the change on line 154
    <https://github.com/Jasig/uPortal/pull/78/files#L0L154>If there is
    no values array set the default value should be returned. This
    should fix the problem you had of defining a preference with not
    values in the portlet.xml.

    However the change on line 157
    <https://github.com/Jasig/uPortal/pull/78/files#L0L157> would
    break the preferences object according to the spec as it would
    prevent a portlet from correctly storing null in the first element
    of the preference values array.

    I will apply the first change before 4.0.7 is cut.

    it to trunk and 4.1.patches.

        I'm back getting actual work done and will plan on cutting
        4.0.7 monday. I reviewed all changes on master and merged
        what I thought applied back to 4.0-patches. I'll be going
        through Jira tonight to see if there is any low-hanging fruit
        and then plan on cutting the release Monday. I'll also be
        cutting a new resource server release on Sunday so if anyone
        has any changes be sure to get them in.

        -Eric
