             Summary: Using CXF in JDK endorsed dir as JAX-WS impl crashes
                 Key: CXF-6966
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-6966
             Project: CXF
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Core, JAX-WS Runtime
    Affects Versions: 3.1.6
         Environment: Oracle JDK 1.8 (Update 91), not tested with other 
environments.
            Reporter: Max Bureck
            Priority: Critical


Placing the basic CXF libraries into a directory and calling a java program 
with -Djava.endorsed.dirs=<selected_dir> using Oracle JDK 1.8 causes the 
program to crash when starting a WebService using the Endpoint API.

Here is the relevant stack trace:
Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException
at java.util.ResourceBundle.getBundle(Unknown Source)
        at org.apache.cxf.common.i18n.BundleUtils.getBundle(BundleUtils.java:80)
        at 
org.apache.cxf.common.logging.LogUtils.createLogger(LogUtils.java:246)
        at 
org.apache.cxf.common.logging.LogUtils.getL7dLogger(LogUtils.java:198)
        at org.apache.cxf.jaxws.spi.ProviderImpl.<clinit>(ProviderImpl.java:76)
 ... 20 more

The root cause seems to be that class "org.apache.cxf.jaxws.spi.ProviderImpl" 
has the following static field:
{code:java}
protected static final Logger LOG = 
LogUtils.getL7dLogger(ProviderImpl.class);
{code}
Unfortunately the {{ProviderImpl.class}} does not reference a ClassLoader when 
using Oracles JDK. Down the stack the method 
{{java.util.ResourceBundle.getBundle(String, Locale, ClassLoader)}} is called 
with {{null}} as ClassLoader, and the implementation of Oracles JDK throws a 
{{NullPointerException}}.

This can most likely be avoided by slightly modifying  
{{org.apache.cxf.common.i18n.BundleUtils.getBundle(Class<?>)}} to not only 
catch {{MissingResourceException}}, but {{RuntimeException}} in general or 
check if the ClassLoader is {{null}} beforehand and not pay the cost of an 
exception being thrown.
