I am using a pdf created with Adobe Designer 7.0...
When calling setListOption with a shortened (non-key) field name, the
method fails with a nullpointer exception on the Item. Is there a
reason that the fieldName parameter that works for setField doesn't work
here?
public boolean setListOption(String fieldName, String[] exportValues,
String[] displayValues) {
if (exportValues == null && displayValues == null)
return false;
if (exportValues != null && displayValues != null &&
exportValues.length != displayValues.length)
throw new IllegalArgumentException("The export and the
display array must have the same size.");
int ftype = getFieldType(fieldName);
if (ftype != FIELD_TYPE_COMBO && ftype != FIELD_TYPE_LIST)
return false;
Item fd = (Item)fields.get(fieldName); //--nullpointer here for
valid field name, expects the .whatever[0]. pathing
public boolean setListOption(String fieldName, String[] exportValues,
String[] displayValues) {
if (exportValues == null && displayValues == null)
return false;
if (exportValues != null && displayValues != null &&
exportValues.length != displayValues.length)
throw new IllegalArgumentException("The export and the
display array must have the same size.");
int ftype = getFieldType(fieldName);
if (ftype != FIELD_TYPE_COMBO && ftype != FIELD_TYPE_LIST)
return false;
//(stole this code from setField method, which works)
if (xfa.isXfaPresent()) {
fieldName = xfa.findFieldName(fieldName, this);
if (fieldName == null)
return false;
String shortName = XfaForm.Xml2Som.getShortName(fieldName);
}
Item fd = (Item)fields.get(fieldName); //--sets values correctly
