Alex Liu commented on CASSANDRA-6180:
-------------------------------------
If we do need use ByteBuffer.wrap(new byte[0]) to fix the issue, this should
only apply to CqlStorage, CassandraStorage should stay the old way.
> NPE in CqlRecordWriter: Related to AbstractCassandraStorage handling null
> values

> Key: CASSANDRA-6180
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-6180
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Hadoop
> Environment: Pig, CqlStorage
> Reporter: Henning Kropp
> Attachments: null_test.pig, patch.txt, test_null.cql, test_null_data
>
>
> I encountered an issue with the {{CqlStorage}} and it's handling of null
> values. The {{CqlRecordWriter}} throws an NPE when a value is null. I found a
> related ticket CASSANDRA-5885 and applied the there stated fix to the
> {{AbstractCassandraStorage}}.
> Instead of converting {{null}} values to {{ByteBuffer.wrap(new byte[0])}}
> {{AbstractCassandraStorage}} returns {{(ByteBuffer)null}}
> This issue can be reproduced with the attached files: {{test_null.cql}},
> {{test_null_data}}, {{null_test.pig}}
> A fix can be found in the attached patch.
