Potential bug.

[Dimitri Valax]

Hello,

I'am a new french ofbiz user.

After having  checked out, I'am having a  "Null pointer acces"  error

        String skipPermissionCheck = null;

        if (UtilValidate.isEmpty(skipPermissionCheck)
            || (!skipPermissionCheck.equalsIgnoreCase("true") && !skipPermissionCheck.equalsIgnoreCase("granted"))) {

I don't know if you are aware of that?

this is not OFBiz specific error. this is Core Java error.
you are trying to call a instance method on null object.

Your skipPermissionCheck is null.

and you are calling method equalsIgnoreCase on the object.

Thanks and Regards

Sorry Chirag,

This is OFBiz OOTB in 3 places
It seems to me that it should be rather fixed using

if (UtilValidate.isEmpty(skipPermissionCheck) || (!"true".equalsIgnoreCase(skipPermissionCheck).&&
!"granted".equalsIgnoreCase(skipPermissionCheck)))) {

There is even one place where it does not make any sense.

I have opened https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-4198 and provided a patch. I have not enough time at the moment to test.
If someone could confirm it would be cool....

Thanks

Jacques
