Gyeongtae Park created ZEPPELIN-6242: ----------------------------------------
Summary: Refactor initAuth in Neo4jConnectionManager for safer enum parsing and default handling Key: ZEPPELIN-6242 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZEPPELIN-6242 Project: Zeppelin Issue Type: Task Reporter: Gyeongtae Park Fix For: 1.0.0, 0.12.1, 0.13.0 The current {{initAuth(Properties properties)}} method in *Neo4jConnectionManager* calls {code:java} Neo4jAuthType.valueOf(authType.toUpperCase()) {code} without any null-check or validation. This leads to several problems: * *NullPointerException* if {{neo4j.auth.type}} is missing from the interpreter properties * *IllegalArgumentException* with an unclear stack trace when an unsupported value is provided * Reduced readability and maintainability due to inline exception handling inside the {{switch}} statement h4. Proposed Changes * Provide a *default value of {{NONE}}* when {{neo4j.auth.type}} is absent * Parse the enum inside a {{try-catch}} block to deliver *explicit, user-friendly error messages* for unsupported values * Keep the {{switch}} statement focused on authentication logic once the enum is safely parsed * Add a defensive branch ({{{}default{}}}) that should not be reached but satisfies the compiler -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
