Getting NullPointerException when trying to stream().filter().collect(Collectors.toList())) on Java list [duplicate]

问题

I got a problem while trying to search a specific Java object in a list.
Actually i got the search function i want working for another Java class. Now i tried it for a different one but instead of returning a list of results i get a NullPointerException.

This is how my function looks:

 public static List<Customer> searchByEverything(String keyword){
    List<Customer> customerList = find.all(); //Using java Ebean

    System.out.println(keyword); //Check if keyword is not empty
    System.out.println(customerList); //Check if list is not empty

    Predicate<Customer> customerPredicate = u -> u.name.toLowerCase().contains(keyword.toLowerCase());

    try{
        return customerList.stream().filter(customerPredicate).collect(Collectors.toList());
    }catch (Exception e){
        e.printStackTrace();
    }

This is the strack trace from Exception e:

As i said, i have exactly the same search implemented for a different class and it works perfectly fine. Both customerList and keyword are not empty. The only difference between searching in my customerList and the other list, is that it has around 4500 objects with around 50 attributes per object. Maybe that's the problem?

Thank you in advance!

回答1:

Very likely u.name is null

Try to change your Predicate in

Predicate<Customer> customerPredicate = u -> (u.name != null && u.name.toLowerCase().contains(keyword.toLowerCase()));

To see what's the Customer instance that has name == null, you could add a peek method in your chain.

customerList.stream()
.peek(c -> { 
   if (c.name == null) {
      // do something...
   }
}).filter(customerPredicate).collect(Collectors.toList());
