DOMResponseWriter.writeText NPE from null text

    Details

      Description

      DOMResponseWriter.writeText does a null reference check on the text parameter passed in, and accordingly throws a NPE. At first glance it might appear that it could simply ignore the lack of text, but looking at ResponseWriter.writeText's JavaDoc, it's clear that this contract is in place, and so DOMResponseWriter is obligated to do what it's doing.

      So, the onus falls on the callers to not call this method with a null text parameter. From auditing the ICEfaces code-base, many unchecked uses exist throughout the ACE and compat component code. Some uses do employ null checking, but they are in the minority. Each use needs to be fixed.
