[webservices] Problem in Java-WS library WaveformService stream method

[Benjamin Sick]

Hello,

there seems to be a bug in the WaveformService stream method.

Extending the waveform reading example from the tutorial to save the
response in a miniseed file results in a NullPointerException:

WaveformService waveFormService = serviceUtil.getWaveformService();
WaveformCriteria criteria = new WaveformCriteria();
criteria.add(network, station, location, channel, startDate, endDate);
FileOutputStream os = new FileOutputStream("test.mseed");
waveFormService.stream(os, criteria);
os.close();

The attached diff fixes the problem. However it looks like there is
unnecessary code duplication in the library. A preferable solution
IMHO would be to merge the methods fetch and stream.

Best Regards,
Benjamin Sick
