#1588 NullPointerException in Event.startFire() while calling HtmlInput.click()

[Nicolas Baumann]

Hello,

I received a NullPointerException in Event.startFire() while calling HtmlInput.click().
So I had a look to the SVN trunk (see code paste below) and found out it was because of a cast to LinkedList on a null object. Would you please proceed to null check before casting ?

/*
* Called when the event starts being fired
/
@SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
void startFire() {
LinkedList<event> events = (LinkedList<event>) Context.getCurrentContext().getThreadLocal(KEY_CURRENT_EVENT);
if (events == null) {
events = new LinkedList<event>();
Context.getCurrentContext().putThreadLocal(KEY_CURRENT_EVENT, events);
}
events.add(this);
} </event></event></event>

Kind regards,
Nicolas Baumann.

Sorry my previous analysis was wrong, Context.getCurrentContext() returns null in fact.

[Nicolas Baumann]

Both Context.getCurrentContext().getThreadLocal(KEY_CURRENT_EVENT) and Context.getCurrentContext() can be null in fact

Nicolas I think this issue may be similar to #1589. What do you think about that? Does my patch (from #1589) works in your case?

[Adam Afeltowicz]

On latest snapshot version issue seems to be fixed so my patch is unnecessary.

Hi Nicolas,

have just fixed #1589. Your problem looks like a duplicate but without the stacktrace i have no chance to proove that.
Can you please check if the problem is gone for you also and report back.

If the problem still perstist, i need at least the stacktrace.
