Minor Description
— CompDocEvents.java:106, WMI_WRONG_MAP_ITERATOR
WMI: org.apache.ofbiz.content.compdoc.CompDocEvents.persistRootCompDoc(HttpServletRequest, HttpServletResponse) makes inefficient use of keySet iterator instead of entrySet iterator
This method accesses the value of a Map entry, using a key that was retrieved from a keySet iterator. It is more efficient to use an iterator on the entrySet of the map, to avoid the Map.get(key) lookup.
— CompDocEvents.java:154, NP_LOAD_OF_KNOWN_NULL_VALUE
NP: Load of known null value in org.apache.ofbiz.content.compdoc.CompDocEvents.genCompDocPdf(HttpServletRequest, HttpServletResponse)
The variable referenced at this point is known to be null due to an earlier check against null. Although this is valid, it might be a mistake (perhaps you intended to refer to a different variable, or perhaps the earlier check to see if the variable is null should have been a check to see if it was non-null).
— CompDocEvents.java:157, NP_LOAD_OF_KNOWN_NULL_VALUE
NP: Load of known null value in org.apache.ofbiz.content.compdoc.CompDocEvents.genCompDocPdf(HttpServletRequest, HttpServletResponse)
The variable referenced at this point is known to be null due to an earlier check against null. Although this is valid, it might be a mistake (perhaps you intended to refer to a different variable, or perhaps the earlier check to see if the variable is null should have been a check to see if it was non-null).
— CompDocEvents.java:216, NP_LOAD_OF_KNOWN_NULL_VALUE
NP: Load of known null value in org.apache.ofbiz.content.compdoc.CompDocEvents.genContentPdf(HttpServletRequest, HttpServletResponse)
The variable referenced at this point is known to be null due to an earlier check against null. Although this is valid, it might be a mistake (perhaps you intended to refer to a different variable, or perhaps the earlier check to see if the variable is null should have been a check to see if it was non-null).
— CompDocEvents.java:219, NP_LOAD_OF_KNOWN_NULL_VALUE

— CompDocServices.java:175, DM_DEFAULT_ENCODING
Dm: Found reliance on default encoding in org.apache.ofbiz.content.compdoc.CompDocServices.renderCompDocPdf(DispatchContext, Map): new String(byte[])
Found a call to a method which will perform a byte to String (or String to byte) conversion, and will assume that the default platform encoding is suitable. This will cause the application behaviour to vary between platforms. Use an alternative API and specify a charset name or Charset object explicitly.
— CompDocServices.java:193, UCF_USELESS_CONTROL_FLOW
UCF: Useless control flow in org.apache.ofbiz.content.compdoc.CompDocServices.renderCompDocPdf(DispatchContext, Map)
This method contains a useless control flow statement, where control flow continues onto the same place regardless of whether or not the branch is taken. For example, this is caused by having an empty statement block for an if statement:
if (argv.length == 0)
{ // TODO: handle this case }— CompDocServices.java:243, REC_CATCH_EXCEPTION
REC: Exception is caught when Exception is not thrown in org.apache.ofbiz.content.compdoc.CompDocServices.renderCompDocPdf(DispatchContext, Map)
This method uses a try-catch block that catches Exception objects, but Exception is not thrown within the try block, and RuntimeException is not explicitly caught. It is a common bug pattern to say try
{ ... } catch (Exception e) { something } as a shorthand for catching a number of types of exception each of whose catch blocks is identical, but this construct also accidentally catches RuntimeException as well, masking potential bugs.A better approach is to either explicitly catch the specific exceptions that are thrown, or to explicitly catch RuntimeException exception, rethrow it, and then catch all non-Runtime Exceptions, as shown below:
try { ... } catch (RuntimeException e) { throw e; } catch (Exception e) { ... deal with all non-runtime exceptions ... }

— CompDocServices.java:347, NP_NULL_PARAM_DEREF
NP: Null passed for nonnull parameter of java.nio.ByteBuffer.wrap(byte[]) in org.apache.ofbiz.content.compdoc.CompDocServices.renderContentPdf(DispatchContext, Map)
This method call passes a null value for a non-null method parameter. Either the parameter is annotated as a parameter that should always be non-null, or analysis has shown that it will always be dereferenced.
