Punith DG created OLINGO-1064:
---------------------------------
Summary: Complex type is deserialized as Primitive type is the
value is NULL
Key: OLINGO-1064
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OLINGO-1064
Project: Olingo
Issue Type: Bug
Components: odata2-core, odata4-client, odata4-commons
Affects Versions: (Java) V4 4.2.0
Reporter: Punith DG
The ODataClient deserializer wrongly converts the Complex Type field to
Primitive Type field if the value received for the complex type is NULL.
e.g. on querying Person data from OData TripPin service
(https://services.odata.org/TripPinRESTierService) I received below JSON
response.
{
"@odata.context":
"http://services.odata.org/TripPinRESTierService/(S(myhztseklikbg41mbg03ugk5))/$metadata#People(AddressInfo,FavoriteFeature,FirstName,HomeAddress,LastName,UserName)",
"value": [{
"FavoriteFeature": "Feature1",
"FirstName": "Angel",
"Gender": "Female",
"LastName": "Huffman",
"UserName": "angelhuffman",
"AddressInfo": [{
"Address": "55 Grizzly Peak Rd.",
"City": {
"Name": "Butte",
"CountryRegion": "United States",
"Region": "MT"
}
}],
"HomeAddress": null
}]
}
See that HomeAddress is of complex type and received value is 'null'.
When you deserialize and get an entity, the HomeAddress (ComplexType of type
'Location') property of the Person entity is set to Primitive Type with null
value.
