Plain Java Application Constructor Parameter is null [message #742621] Thu, 20 October 2011 13:06 Go to next message

In an Stardust process model, why would my POJO constructor parameter be null.

Did you configure two IN-data-mappings of the same kind. Probably by accident. Are they both configured to inject the structured data into the constructor?

The reason why the constructor parameter is NULL is that the data object has not been initialized in the process. Stardust tries to handle the space for data objects economically and any object that has never been used simply does not exist in the database.
When being consumed (as an IN-mapping, for example) without having been created before (e.g. as an OUT-mapping in a prior activity) then the object simply is NULL. Only primitives like long or boolean are automatically initiated to their defaults by Java.

If you had expected to receive an empty Map in your code, you should simply guard your constructor by checking for NULL and instantiating the Map if needed.
