IIRC the vars I have unboxed were only constant values. I can't imagine how they can generate a NPE. > Note also that removing explicit [un]boxing does not change the > generated code, so I would not class it as an optimisation. The code is less verbose so I consider it a good optimisation in terms of readability (calling every variables with just an alphabetic letter doesn't change the generated code as well). --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@commons.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@commons.apache.org
