James Taylor commented on PHOENIX-1220:
---------------------------------------
Thanks, [~ramkrishna], but I'm not sure this is a bug (unless Maryann has found
a case through the JDBC API where this occurs).
> 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
> Original Estimate: 24h
> Remaining Estimate: 24h
>
> 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.
