requestAssociation with null file extension throws NPE
java.lang.NullPointerException
at com.sun.jnlp.IntegrationServiceImpl.requestAssociation(Unknown Source)

Since file extensions are optional parameter we may need to allow this or should throw IllegalArgumentException rather than throwing Null Pointer Exception.

Example:
                IntegrationService is = (IntegrationService)
                        ServiceManager.lookup("javax.jnlp.IntegrationService");
                String mime = "abc/xyz";
                boolean result = is.requestAssociation(mime,null);
Grouped 3 other CRs into this one, as it is really only one problem.
RequestAssociation with invalid mime returns true.

I am requesting Invalid MIME (Mime syntax is [any char]+/[any char]+). RequestAssociation is returning true.

I think it should return false here. I understand we are not checking the syntax of mime type.(and expecting user will know this ) But I think it should be nice to check these to make the api more robust.
Example:
                IntegrationService is = (IntegrationService)
                        ServiceManager.lookup("javax.jnlp.IntegrationService");
                String mime = "abc";
                String [] exts = {".abc"};
                boolean result = is.requestAssociation(mime,exts);

hasAssociation with empty file extension string {""} throws StringIndexOutOfBoundsException java
null file extension throws NullPointerException.
This is same as requestAssociation needs to change to either illegalArgumentException.

Suppose we have assocition like this
    <association>
      <mime-type="application-x/swingset2-file"/>
    </association>
If want to check hasAssocition("application-x/swingset2-file",null or {""}) ?
Is <extensions> are mandatory ?

requestAssociation with empty file extension string {""} throws StringIndexOutOfBoundsException
java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String index out of range: 0

at com.sun.jnlp.IntegrationServiceImpl.hasAssociation(Unknown Source)

Here again we may need throw either IllegalArgumentException or should not create any association with file extension should not throw this Runtime Exception.
                IntegrationService is = (IntegrationService)
                        ServiceManager.lookup("javax.jnlp.IntegrationService");
                String mime = "abc/xyz";
                String [] exts = {""};
                boolean result = is.requestAssociation(mime,exts);
