Marcel Villet updated CASSANDRA-13891: -------------------------------------- Description: Basically, {{fromJson}} throws a {{java.lang.NullPointerException}} when NULL is passed, instead of just returning a NULL itself. Say I create a UDT and a table as follows: create type type1 ( id int, name text ); create table table1 ( id int, t FROZEN<type1>, primary key (id) ); And then try and insert a row as such: {{insert into table1 (id, t) VALUES (1, fromJson(null));}} I get the error: {{java.lang.NullPointerException}} This works as expected: {{insert into table1 (id, t) VALUES (1, null);}} Programmatically, one does not always know when a UDT will be null, hence me expecting {{fromJson}} to just return NULL. was: Basically, {{fromJson}} throws a {{java.lang.NullPointerException}} when NULL is passed, instead of just returning a NULL itself.
