------------------------------------
This issue seems to affect all logical avro types: decimal, date, timestamp,
arrays
> NiFi record serde throws NPE when decimal field has null value
> --------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: NIFI-5891
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-5891
> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Core Framework
> Affects Versions: 1.8.0
> Environment: RHEL 7.5
> Open JDK 1.8
> Reporter: Gideon Korir
> Priority: Major
>
> When an incoming record has a null decimal field, NiFiRecordSerDe (
> org.apache.hive.streaming) throws an NPE when trying to create a HiveDecimal.
> This causes the PutHive3Streaming processor to skip the record and log a
> warning.
>
> The lines:
> {code:java}
> val = HiveDecimal.create(record.getAsDouble(fieldName));
> {code}
> should be changed to something along the lines of:
> {code:java}
> Double d = record.getAsDouble(fieldName);
> val = d == null ? null : HiveRecord.create(d);{code}
> The bug is insidious and occurs during Auto-unboxing.
