Hi,
Please review this change to fix 7051862. For ACCEPT_ORIGINAL_SERVER,
shouldAccept() throws a NullPointerException for null arguments.
Out of the many options to fix this, I think the best way is to return
false if either of the arguments is null - based on the fact that
HttpCookie.domainMathes() returns false for null arguments.
I agree with this change. It is a change in behavior ( returns false
where use to throw NPE ) but unlikely to cause surprise. It is also
worth noting that we cannot, easily, specify that shouldAccept throw
NPE since there are two other concrete CookiePolicy instances that
would need to change ( they would then throw NPE where previously
returned true/false ), and that would arguably be more surprising.
- Thanks Chris, those indded are the other fixes I had considered.
Many a simple test? Or amend an existing one?
- Working on it, I'll get back today.
