Description

Reported by David Jencks

I'm finding a tck problem around FacesConfig ordering. I haven't figured out if this is caused by the geronimo integration or myfaces itself but I think there's something odd in the myfaces code.

DefaultFacesConfigurationProvider line 461 has

getDispenser().feed(getFacesConfig(appConfigResources, nameSlot.getName()));

getFacesConfig can return null if it doesn't find a FacesConfig with the supplied name:

private FacesConfig getFacesConfig(List<FacesConfig> appConfigResources, String name)
{
for (FacesConfig cfg: appConfigResources)
{
if (cfg.getName() != null && name.equals(cfg.getName()))

{ return cfg; }

}
return null;
}

but the feed method starts off:

public void feed(FacesConfig config)
{
for (Factory factory : config.getFactories())

assuming a non-null argument.

Whatever the cause of the null I'm seeing returned from getFacesConfig this doesn't seem right.
