Null Pointer Exception BigDecimal

[Anonymous]

Hey there,

I want to use this here:

(row5.SUMJHR ! = null ? row5.SUMJHR.toPlainString() : row5.SUMJHR)

talend gets me the error: "Type mismatch: cannot convert from Object&Serialzable&Comparable<?> to String"

Any Idea? The input row is BigDecimal.

Thanks a lot!

You need to give me more info. For example, what is the field type that this is setting. I am assuming it is String. However, a quick solution might just be this....

(row5.SUMJHR ! = null ? row5.SUMJHR.toPlainString() : null)

(row5.SUMJHR ! = null ? row5.SUMJHR.toPlainString() : row5.SUMJHR)

i think your expression is wrong. Use this:

(row5.SUMJHR ! = null)? row5.SUMJHR.toPlainString() : row5.SUMJHR

Be sure that your output is a String type

@sgv there is no difference between those two expressions. The brackets do nothing

I got the solution:

row5.SUMJHR == null ? null : row5.SUMJHR.toPlainString()
