javax.swing.accessibility.AccessibleRelation.getTarget() throws unexpected
NullPointerException.

JavaDoc says :
"public Object[] getTarget()

     Returns the target objects for this relation
     Returns:
         an array containing the target objects for this relation
"

According to the shown JavaDoc comments I guess this method should
return an empty array.

Here is the example demonstrating the bug:
------------------ Test.java -----------------
import javax.accessibility.AccessibleRelation;

public class Test {

    public static void main(String[] argv) {
        AccessibleRelation c = new WrapAccessibleRelation("Test");

        try {
            Object res[] = c.getTarget();
            System.out.println(" OKAY ");
        } catch (NullPointerException npe) {
            System.out.println(" NPE has been thrown");
        }
        System.exit(0);
    }
}

class WrapAccessibleRelation extends AccessibleRelation {

    public WrapAccessibleRelation(String key) {
        super(key);
    }
}
-------------- Output from the test -----------------
 NPE has been thrown
------------------------------------------------------
