Mark Payne updated NIFI-4857: ----------------------------- Resolution: Fixed Fix Version/s: 1.7.0 Status: Resolved (was: Patch Available) > Record components do not support String <-> byte[] conversions > -------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: NIFI-4857 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-4857 > Project: Apache NiFi > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Extensions > Reporter: Matt Burgess > Assignee: Matt Burgess > Priority: Major > Fix For: 1.7.0 > > > When trying to perform a conversion of a field between a String and a byte > array, various errors are reporting (depending on where the conversion is > taking place). Here are some examples: > 1) CSVReader, if a column with String values is specified in the schema as > "bytes" > 2) ConvertRecord, if an input field is of type String and the output field is > of type "bytes" > 3) ConvertRecord, if an input field is of type "bytes" and the output field > is of type "String" > Many/most/all of the record components use utility methods to convert values, > I believe these methods need to be updated to support conversion between > String and byte[] values. > -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
