Specification excerpt:
======================
--------- J2SE API spec v.1.5 ---------
...
public ActionEvent(Object source,
                   int id,
                   String command)
Constructs an ActionEvent object.

Note that passing in an invalid id results in unspecified behavior. This method throws an IllegalArgumentException if source is null.

Parameters:
source - the object that originated the event
id - an integer that identifies the event
command - a string that may specify a command (possibly one of several) associated with the event
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if source is null

Problem description
===================
Javadoc for the 3 methods:
ActionEvent(Object source, int id, String command)
ActionEvent(java.lang.Object,int,java.lang.String,int)
ActionEvent(java.lang.Object,int,java.lang.String,long,int)

does not specify the expected behaviour in case 'command' == null.

This issue has been already desribed in jdk spec bug 4743026 (INT now) but
it is not fixed. It was a part of bug description and I guess it was just missed.

To avoid extra 'paper work' I create new bug.
