Aniket Mokashi created PIG-3576: ----------------------------------- Summary: NPE due to PIG-3549 when job never gets submitted Key: PIG-3576 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-3576 Project: Pig Issue Type: Bug Reporter: Aniket Mokashi Priority: Trivial
NPE can happen if job never gets submitted due to errors like - input path does not exists. Following line (toString method) throws npe- {code} msg.append("JobID: " + j.getAssignedJobID().toString() + " Reason: " + j.getMessage()); {code} Apparently, a.toString can throw NPE, but String.valueOf(a) handles null well(writes "null" for null values). -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1#6144)
