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.
