Niall Pemberton resolved BEANUTILS-368.
---------------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
Fix Version/s: 1.8.2
Assignee: Niall Pemberton
This is a regression introduced in BeanUtils 1.8.1 by the fix for BEANUTILS-345:
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=revision&revision=822308
BeanUtils 1.7.0 and 1.8.0 throw an IllegalArgumentException if the target is
null. I am adding a null check to the new line of code that was added for
EANUTILS-345
Thanks for reporting this, it should now be fixed:
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=revision&revision=834031
> NullPointerException in BeanUtilsBean .setProperty(), line: 930

> Key: BEANUTILS-368
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEANUTILS-368
> Project: Commons BeanUtils
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Bean / Property Utils
> Affects Versions: 1.8.1
> Environment: JDK 1.6
> Reporter: Peter Fassev
> Assignee: Niall Pemberton
> Priority: Critical
> Fix For: 1.8.2
>
>
> There is a NullPointerException in the method
> BeanUtilsBeans.setProperty(Object bean, String name, Object value) method:
> java.lang.NullPointerException
> at
> org.apache.commons.beanutils.BeanUtilsBean.setProperty(BeanUtilsBean.java:930)
> The problem is, that few rows earlear the target may be null:
> target = getPropertyUtils().getProperty(target,
> resolver.next(name)); // NOTE, the result may be NULL.
> In such case, the condition at line 930
> } else if (target.getClass().isArray() && index >= 0) {
> will race a NullPointerException. In the old 1.7.0 version there has been no
> such condition or has been executed later...
> Proposed FIX: Please add at new line, which checks the "target"
> target = getPropertyUtils().getProperty(target, resolver.next(name));
> // NOTE, the result may be NULL.
> if (target == null) {
> return;
> }
> NOTE. Such check may be added also to the other similar methods, like
> BeanUtilsBean.copyProperty().
> Regards
