"java.lang.NullPointerException" when opening reports with variable "RANGE" and "Not Assigned" checked

Post by webster.junior »

When we try to open reports built with "Stimulsoft Reports.Java.2020.2.2" in version "Stimulsoft Reports.Java.2021.3.6" for editing, the document does not open for editing and shows the following message: "java.lang.NullPointerException".

The document in question, contains a variable "datetime" of type "Range" starting with "Value" where the "From" and "To" are marked with the option of "Not Assigned".

P.S.: In this version 2021.3.6, when a variable is created in this way, referenced ("datetime" of type "Range" starting with "Value" where the "From" and "To" are marked with the option of "Not Assigned"), after save the variable and go back to editing it, the values of "Not Assigned" are not saved, reverting to the default form of "not checked".

We found a way to work around the problem, editing the report XML by inserting values in this position:
..
Example V_DATE variable marked with "Not Assigned" option
Example V_DATE variable marked with "Not Assigned" option

But that settles for an urgent case. Does anyone know the prediction of the correctness of these two correlated issues?

1 - "java.lang.NullPointerException" when opening reports with variable "RANGE" and "Not Assigned" checked
2 - Failed to save variable "datetime" of type "Range" starting with "Value" where "From" and "To" are marked with option of "Not Assigned", not persisting option marked "Not Assigned"
