> 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.
