Simulator crash when passing null options parameter to makeWebRequest

o A Descriptive Title (i.e. “Simulator Freezes Launching App in Eclipse”)
Simulator crash when passing null options parameter to makeWebRequest

o The Environment:
Windows 10
Eclipse Neon.1 (4.6.1)
ConnectIQ 2.2.3

o A detailed description of the issue
The documentation explicitly says that passing null as the third parameter is allowed. If I do pass null, the simulator crashes with the following error.
Device id 1 name "A garmin device"
Shell Version 0.1.0
Failed invoking <symbol>
Unexpected Type Error
