Change subject: restapi: Avoid NPE when external event has link but not id ...................................................................... restapi: Avoid NPE when external event has link but not id Currently when an external event is added we support links to specific objects, for examaple, to add an event with a link to a specific virtual machine we accept the following event: <event> <description>File system /home is full</description> <severity>alert</severity> <origin>mymonitor</origin> <custom_id>1467879754</custom_id> <vm id="aae98225-5b73-490d-a252-899209af17e9"/> </event> But we don't check if the "id" attribute of the link is actually populated, which generates a NPE. For example, if the caller sends the name instead of the id: <event> <description>File system /home is full</description> <severity>alert</severity> <origin>mymonitor</origin> <custom_id>1467879754</custom_id> <vm> <name>myvm</name> </vm> </event> This isn't supported at the moment, but it shound't generate a NPE, it should just be ignored. This patch changes the event mapper so that it checks if the id is present.
