new RequestSpecBuilder().addHeader - Can we use variable to specify the value?

[Anil Shekhar]

Here is what I have tried ...

    String uidFrankF = Users.get("Frank Facilitator");

// RequestSpecification requestSpecification = new RequestSpecBuilder().addHeader("uid", Users.get("Frank Facilitator")).build();

// RequestSpecification requestSpecification = new RequestSpecBuilder().addHeader("uid", uidFrankF).build();

RequestSpecification requestSpecification = new RequestSpecBuilder().addHeader("uid", "0e60367c-18f9-e511-80e7-c4346bac1998").build();

RestAssured.requestSpecification = requestSpecification;

1st and 2nd approach did not work out ... I kept getting the following exception ... 

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Header value cannot be null

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Ok, maybe uidFrankF is indeed null?
