             Summary: NullPointerException in PArrayDataType.toObject() when baseType is CHAR or BINARY
                 Key: PHOENIX-1220
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PHOENIX-1220
             Project: Phoenix
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 5.0.0
            Reporter: Maryann Xue
            Priority: Minor


We now assume that for PDataType, if isFixedLength() returns true, we can use getByteSize() to get the byte array length of this type. But with BINARY and CHAR types, isFixedLength() returns true while getByteSize() returns null, and that's why we would get an NPE if we write code like:
{code:title=PArrayDataType.createPhoenixArray()}
        if (!baseDataType.isFixedWidth()) {
            ...
        } else {
            int elemLength = (maxLength == null ? baseDataType.getByteSize() : maxLength);
            ...
        }
{code}
There are more than one occurrences of such code besides this one.
