             Bug #: 53107
           Summary: NullPointer in AbstractWordUtils while transforming
                    doc in html
           Product: POI
           Version: 3.8
          Platform: PC
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: HWPF
        AssignedTo: dev@poi.apache.org
        ReportedBy: benoit.maggi@gmail.com
    Classification: Unclassified


Hello,

I get a NullPointer while using poi in transforming doc in html.

The method getLevel (in ListTables) return a null while there is no null test
in  AbstractWordUtils (there are other place with no test)  

My temporary patch is to return an empty ListLevel (return new ListLevel();) 
at the end of getLevel! The transformation works fine.

I don't know which one is the best practice :
  - return an empty object ?
  - test null after each call of getLevel(...) ?

Here some codes :

It comes from :
org.apache.poi.hwpf.converter.AbstractWordUtils L232 :

        final ListLevel listLevel = listTables.getLevel( listId,
                paragraph.getIlvl() );

        if ( listLevel.getNumberText() == null )
            return EMPTY;


org.apache.poi.hwpf.model.ListTables L224 :

  public ListLevel getLevel(int listID, int level)
  {
    ListData lst = _listMap.get(Integer.valueOf(listID));
    if(level < lst.numLevels()) {
        ListLevel lvl = lst.getLevels()[level];
        return lvl;
    }
    log.log(POILogger.WARN, "Requested level " + level + " which was greater
than the maximum defined (" + lst.numLevels() + ")");
    return null;
  }

Regards,
