FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
1.7.0_72

ADDITIONAL OS VERSION INFORMATION :
Microsoft Windows [Version 6.1.7601]

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
I'm trying to execute such code:

public class Test {
    Double getDouble(){
        return null;
    }
    
    int getCount(){
        return 1;
    }
    
    void test(){
        Double value = 0.0;
        value = getCount() == 1 ? getDouble() : 1.0;
        System.out.println(value);
    }
    
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        new Test().test();
    }
}

and getting NullPointerException.
The problem is in " value = getCount() == 1 ? getDouble() : 1.0;" line.
Also if I change getDouble() to null everything works and this is strange.
As I understand JVM cast everything to one type and during this cast NullPointerException occurs

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
Run code:

public class Test {
    Double getDouble(){
        return null;
    }
    
    int getCount(){
        return 1;
    }
    
    void test(){
        Double value = 0.0;
        value = getCount() == 1 ? getDouble() : 1.0;
        System.out.println(value);
    }
    
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        new Test().test();
    }
}


EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
To have "null" printed in console.
ACTUAL -
NullPointerException occurs

REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.

CUSTOMER SUBMITTED WORKAROUND :
As a workaround I used regular if-else statement:

Double value = 1.0;
if (getCount() == 1){
     value = getCount();
}
System.out.println(value);
