Hello

I have the commet application - some sort of event bus where requests are turned in async mode then stored in internal cache and when event occures / or request times out response is sent back to subscriber (it is handled with my executor worker threads).

It worked fine until I have added a line with calling flushBuffer on response object. My goal was to mark the connection as commited - I am checking whether I have already written to this response (response.isCommited()) in some other part of my code.
Now errors like these pop out in my logs

java.lang.NullPointerException

        .... my code calling flushBuffer() on HttpResponse object
        ....
        .... worker thread


public void send(HttpServletResponse response) { // calling from worker threads
   if (response.isCommitted()) {
      throw new IOException("ERROR");
   }
   response.getWriter().print("RESPONSE");
   response.flushBuffer(); // <---- FAILED HERE
}


Did I miss some curtial lesson about flushing async responses ?

PS.
By the way that NPE should never occur - Is it a BUG ? I am using Tomcat 7.0.28 (current in debian 7.0 Wheezy)
