Clearing resource cache after adding a new store results in a NPE
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Key: GEOS-3987
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-3987
Project: GeoServer
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Andrea Aime
Assignee: Andrea Aime
Fix For: 2.0.3
This is due to a code interaction:
- the web page tries to grab the store from the resource pool before an id is assigned to it to check the configuration is actually working before saving it
- resource pool keyes the store cache by id, which in this case is null
- on cleanup CatalogImpl.getStore(id, ...) is called, and the latter cannot handle null ids
Options:
- we key the store cache by the info object instead of by its id like the other caches
- we don't store in the cache stores whose info id is null
- we make the catalog tolerant to null ids
I would go for the first or the second. What do you think?
