Is there a way to handle null value for a field in XDocReport? or do I need to manipulate it on my own? example:
if (thisVar == null)
context.put("sampleText", "");
else
context.put("sampleText", thisVar);
or is there an option in docx quick parts?
I found this line in the error message of XDocReport. However I could not understand where to apply this, in the template or in the code.
Tip: If the failing expression is known to be legally refer to something that's sometimes null or missing, either specify a default value like myOptionalVar!myDefault, or use [#if myOptionalVar??]when-present[#else]when-missing[/#if]. (These only cover the last step of the expression; to cover the whole expression, use parenthesis: (myOptionalVar.foo)!myDefault, (myOptionalVar.foo)??
In docx, append ?if_exists to the field name
«${tx.amount?if_exists}»
you may also append !
«${tx.amount!}»
