* PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: org.apache.yoko.orb.OCI.IIOP.Connector_ *
*                      impl incorrectly holds null reference   *
*                      to connector helper.                    *

Customer reported a NullPointerException in the trace.log with
the following stack trace:

java.lang.NullPointerException
        at
org.apache.yoko.orb.OCI.IIOP.Connector_impl.connect(Connector_im
pl.java:116)
        ...

PI64494 added diagnostics in the Connector_impl constructor
which modified the exception thrown to be:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Both connection helpers must
not be null
        at
org.apache.yoko.orb.OCI.IIOP.Connector_impl.<init>(Connector_imp
l.java:462)
        at
org.apache.yoko.orb.OCI.IIOP.Connector_impl.<init>(Connector_imp
l.java:475)
        at
org.apache.yoko.orb.OCI.IIOP.ConFactory_impl.create_connectors(C
onFactory_impl.java:217)
        ...

This identified an error when creating Connectors for Profiles
which include TAG_ALTERNATE_IIOP_ADDRESS tag components, where
no valid connector helper is passed to the Connector
constructor.

Problem conclusion

The code constructing new Connector objects was modified to
ensure that a valid non-null connector helper object is always
used.

The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in fix
pack 16.0.0.3.  Please refer to the Recommended Updates page for
