> NullPointerException in DateConverter.toISO8601(DateConverter.java:221)

> Key: PDFBOX-823
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-823
> Project: PDFBox
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: JempBox
> Affects Versions: 1.2.1
> Environment: JDK 1.6.0_21, Windows XP 32 Bit
> Reporter: MH
>
> I tried to add metadata as shown in AddMetadataFromDocInfo.java. There's also
> the line
> basicSchema.setModifyDate( info.getModificationDate() );
> but I get a NullPointerException at this line:
> java.lang.NullPointerException
> at
> org.apache.jempbox.impl.DateConverter.toISO8601(DateConverter.java:221)
> at org.apache.jempbox.xmp.XMPSchema.setDateProperty(XMPSchema.java:249)
> at
> org.apache.jempbox.xmp.XMPSchemaBasic.setModifyDate(XMPSchemaBasic.java:266)
> because the info.getModificationDate() returns null. It would be better to
> catch null parameters in the metadata set methods.
> Workaround:
> if (pddi.getModificationDate() != null) {
> basicSchema.setModifyDate(pddi.getModificationDate());
> }//else: avoid NPE
