title: Play! Framework - Passing Map to another public static method in same controller
body: <p>The external route hits this method in a controller:</p>
  
  <pre><code>public static void externalRouteHit() {
    Map&lt;String, String&gt; myParams = request.params.allSimple();
    redirectedRoute(myParams);
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Then, I try and pass the Map to another method in same controller, but it is null. </p>
  
  <pre><code>public static void redirectedRoute(Map&lt;String, String&gt; myParams) {
    if (myParams == null)
      Logger.info("WTF");
  
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I can pass a string or boolean fine.  What am I doing wrong?</p>
