xmlDatasource emptx fields

[Berrada]

Hi,

 

I have a problem with empty fields while using an xml datasource.

ireport throws a Nullpointerexception if the fieldtype for example BigDecimal or Date but no data found in the xmlDatasource.

-----------------------------------

 

xmlDatasource:

<copaBonusPayOut>10,00</copaBonusPayOut>

<copaBonusSpecial></copaBonusSpecial>

 

-----------------------------------

 

<field name="copaBonusPayOut" class="java.math.BigDecimal">

</field>

 

<field name="copaBonusSpecial" class="java.math.BigDecimal">

</field>

 

 

 

java.lang.NullPointerException at net.sf.jasperreports.engine.data.JRXmlDataSource.convertStringValue(JRXmlDataSource.java:340) at net.sf.jasperreports.engine.data.JRXmlDataSource.getFieldValue(JRXmlDataSource.java:317) at net.sf.jasperreports.engine.fill.JRFillDataset.setOldValues(JRFillDataset.java:813) at net.sf.jasperreports.engine.fill.JRFillDataset.next(JRFillDataset.java:777) at net.sf.jasperreports.engine.fill.JRBaseFiller.next(JRBaseFiller.java:1412) at net.sf.jasperreports.engine.fill.JRVerticalFiller.fillReport(JRVerticalFiller.java:111) at net.sf.jasperreports.engine.fill.JRBaseFiller.fill(JRBaseFiller.java:891) at net.sf.jasperreports.engine.fill.JRFiller.fillReport(JRFiller.java:123) at net.sf.jasperreports.engine.JasperFillManager.fillReport(JasperFillManager.java:420) at net.sf.jasperreports.engine.JasperFillManager.fillReport(JasperFillManager.java:256) at it.businesslogic.ireport.IReportCompiler.run(IReportCompiler.java:1049) at java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source)
