Freeman Fang commented on CXF-3836: ----------------------------------- Hi, I just write a testcase which can verify null value for output Holder parameter works, so I believe this issue already get resolved after CXF 2.4.2, I'll commit the testcase soon. Could you run your test with latest released CXF 2.4.4 or even CXF 2.5?

McCoy > Assignee: Freeman Fang > > When implementing an interface generated from a WSDL which has an output > parameter stored in a holder, as in > {code} > @WebParam(mode = WebParam.Mode.OUT, name = "created", targetNamespace > = "") > javax.xml.ws.Holder<java.lang.Boolean> created > {code} > Failing to provide a value in the supplied holder results in an NPE, > originating from the runtime-generated WrapperTypeHelper class, e.g. > {code} > java.lang.NullPointerException > at > com.vindicia.soap.v3_6.account.UpdateResponse_WrapperTypeHelper1.createWrapperObject(Unknown > Source) > at > org.apache.cxf.jaxws.interceptors.WrapperClassOutInterceptor.handleMessage(WrapperClassOutInterceptor.java:105) > {code} > This fails to inform the user of the cause of the issue or how to diagnose > it. Instead, required parameters should be validated to atleast be not null > before they are assumed to have been provided. > I have validated this behavior on 2.4.2, 2.4.0 and 2.3.6. > The work-around for the user is of course to provide a non-null value in the > holder object. > It is worth noting this appears to only happen for output parameters that are > normally mapped to primitive types. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
