Description

The Javadoc comment below states that the parameter v is a "non-null reference to the OutputProperties object to be added to the collection":
/**
...

• @param v non-null reference to the OutputProperties object to be
• added to the collection.
  */
  public void setOutput(OutputProperties v)
  However, the method return normally without throwing any exception when called with a null v.

Suggested Fixes:
1. Change "@param v non-null reference to the OutputProperties object to be added to the collection." to "@param v reference to the OutputProperties object to be added to the collection,null will be ignored."
or
2. Remove "non-null" from @param.
