[jira] Created: (AVRO-542) NPE in ReflectData
NPE in ReflectData
-------------------
Key: AVRO-542
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-542
Project: Avro
Issue Type: Bug
Components: java
Affects Versions: 1.3.2
Environment: Java
Reporter: Douglas Britsch
On line 253 of ReflectData.java the package is retrieved with:
String space = c.getPackage().getName();
getPackage is documented to be able to return null, and in practice does with generated classes and in certain child classloader scenarios. A safer alternative would be to derive the package by passing the string returned from the class's name:
String space = c.getName().substring(0, name.lastIndexOf('.');
Thanks

[jira] Commented: (AVRO-542) NPE in ReflectData
Posted by "Doug Cutting (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>.

Doug Cutting commented on AVRO-542:
-----------------------------------
This looks like a duplicate of AVRO-86, which never got applied since it lacked a test case and we somehow lost track of it. Maybe we should resolve this issue as a duplicate and set the priority and fix-version of AVRO-86 to make it a blocker for 1.4.0 so that we make sure it's fixed before the next release? Does that sound like reasonable plan? Maybe I can even find some time this afternoon to put together a test case...
