PickList: NullPointerException after validation failure with Mojarra

See original GitHub issue

Forum Post: https://forum.primefaces.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=58237

Stack Overflow: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/54826563/primefaces-picklist-with-omnifaces-validateall-leads-to-nullpointerexception

OmniFaces: https://github.com/omnifaces/omnifaces/issues/488

We null some NULL checks to guard against NPE’s.

The StackTrace is on the mentioned StackOverflow page. With PrimeFaces 7.0 it’s this:

Caused by:java.lang.NullPointerException
    at org.primefaces.component.picklist.PickList.validateValue(PickList.java:140)

    at com.sun.faces.lifecycle.ProcessValidationsPhase.execute(ProcessValidationsPhase.java:76)

And for the PickListRenderer the NPE is in line 127:

        encodeList(context, pickList, clientId + "_target", PickList.TARGET_CLASS, model.getTarget(),
                pickList.getFacet("targetCaption"), pickList.isShowTargetFilter(), false);

Thats ok for me. I’m also not sure if it’s a Mojarra bug (could be a PF bug, too) but its likely as its working fine in MyFaces
