Bug 210156 logger.entering methods causing NullPointerExceptions
Reported: 2007-11-16 17:05:04 | Status: resolved fixed

Build ID: M20071023-1652 Steps To Reproduce: Run reports setting the birtReportEngine.changeLogLevel to Level.Fine More information: Line 46 of org.eclipse.birt.data.engine.impl.aggregation.AggregateTable goes like this: logger.entering( AggregateTable.class.getName( ), "AggregateTable", null ); This throws a null pointer exception in java.util.Logger.entering(String sourceClass, String sourceMethod, Object params[]) (Sun's j2sdk1.4.2_16) The expectation may have been that this would call the method with just Object param (as opposed to Object[] params). The fix would be to use the entering(String sourceClass, String sourceMethod) instead. Other Files that have this issue: Searching with this regexp: logger.entering\([^,;]*[\n]*,[\n]*[^,;]*[\n]*,[\n]*[^,;]*null there seem to be a couple more: 1. org.eclipse.birt.data.engine.impl.DataEngineImpl.defineDataSet( IBaseDataSetDesign dataSet ) 2. org.eclipse.birt.data.engine.impl.DataEngineImpl.defineDataSource( IBaseDataSourceDesign dataSource ) 3.
