Apache NetBeans 23

What happened

When any switch statement or expression has a nullable parameter and case null, it won’t implicitly throw a NullPointerException, so NPECheck shouldn’t report a warning in that case.

How to reproduce

@interface Nullable {}

enum SomeEnum { FOO, BAR, BAZ }

class Test {
	void testSwitch(@Nullable SomeEnum someEnum) {
		// incorrectly reports null warning on the next line:
		switch (someEnum) {
			case FOO	-> { /* do stuff with FOO	*/ }
			case BAR	-> { /* do stuff with BAR	*/ }
			case BAZ	-> { /* do stuff with BAZ	*/ }
			case null	-> { /* do stuff with null	*/ }
		}
	}
}
