----------------------------------
Summary: NiFi record serde throws NPE when decimal field has null
value
Key: NIFI-5891
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-5891
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Core Framework
Affects Versions: 1.8.0
Environment: RHEL 7.5
Open JDK 1.8
Reporter: Gideon Korir
When an incoming record has a null decimal field, NiFiRecordSerDe (
org.apache.hive.streaming) throws an NPE when trying to create a HiveDecimal.
This causes the PutHive3Streaming processor to skip the record and log a
warning.
The lines:
{code:java}
val = HiveDecimal.create(record.getAsDouble(fieldName));
{code}
should be changed to something along the lines of:
{code:java}
Double d = record.getAsDouble(fieldName);
val = d == null ? null : HiveRecord.create(d);{code}
The bug is insidious and occurs during Auto-unboxing.
