Fw: java error: nullpointerexception

[Pete Nygaard <pn...@ritehite.com>]

I am trying to use an FDF file to populate a PDF template document using 
PDFbox.  I am hoping you can help with an error I am encountering.  I 
believe at the line "PDDocumentCatalog docCatalog = pd
.getDocumentCatalog();"
the nullpointerexception is occuring.

The console shows that the FDF file is loaded, however the next println 
statment "1" nevers appears,  the nullpointerexception occurs.


Read FDF file: c:\files\CYLeveler-DLIGCAP.FDF
FDF file loaded
Exception in thread "AgentThread: JavaAgent" 
java.lang.NullPointerException
        at JavaAgent.NotesMain(Unknown Source)
        at lotus.domino.AgentBase.runNotes(Unknown Source)
        at lotus.domino.NotesThread.run(Unknown Source)



public class JavaAgent extends AgentBase {
        PDDocument pd;
        FDFDocument fdf; 
        PDDocumentCatalog docCatalog;
        }
 
public void NotesMain() {
        System.out.println("Read FDF file: " + flds[1]);
                File input = new File(flds[1]);
                fdf = FDFDocument.load(input); 
                System.out.println("FDF file loaded"); 
                PDDocumentCatalog docCatalog = pd.getDocumentCatalog(); // 
I think this is where the nullpointerexception occurs.
                System.out.println("   1");
                PDAcroForm acroForm = docCatalog.getAcroForm();
                System.out.println("   2");
                acroForm.setCacheFields( true ); 
                System.out.println("   3");
                acroForm.importFDF(fdf); 
                System.out.println("   4");

thank you for any assistance you can provide.

just reading your code, I think you want fdf.getDocumentCatalog()
