Claus Ibsen commented on CAMEL-21428:
-------------------------------------

What are you using for temp file name that can be eval as null response - this 
seems the problem. Can you tell what you do

> NullPointerException in createTempFileName due to tempName being null in 
> Camel 4.8.0

>             Project: Camel
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: camel-file
>    Affects Versions: 4.8.0, 4.8.1
>            Reporter: Oystein Follo
>            Priority: Major
>
> We are experiencing a {{NullPointerException}} within the 
> {{createTempFileName}} method. This error occurs when {{tempName}} is 
> evaluated as {{{}null{}}}, and later in the code, a call to 
> {{tempName.length()}} or {{tempName.lastIndexOf()}} results in an exception. 
> This issue can disrupt the file processing flow.
> *Relevant Code Segment:*
> *File: camel-file/components/file/GenericFileProducer.java*
> public String createTempFileName(Exchange exchange, String fileName) \{
>     String answer = fileName;    String tempName;
>     if (exchange.getIn().getHeader(FileConstants.FILE_NAME) == null) {
>         exchange.getIn().setHeader(FileConstants.FILE_NAME, 
> FileUtil.stripPath(fileName));
>         tempName = endpoint.getTempFileName().evaluate(exchange, 
> String.class);
>         exchange.getIn().removeHeader(FileConstants.FILE_NAME);
>     } else \{
>         tempName = endpoint.getTempFileName().evaluate(exchange, 
> String.class);
>     }    int pos = Math.max(answer.lastIndexOf('/'), 
> answer.lastIndexOf("\\"));
>     if (pos == -1) \{
>         answer = tempName;
>     } else \{
>         final String prefix = answer.substring(0, pos + 1);
>         StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder(tempName.length() + 
> prefix.length() + 1);
>         sb.append(prefix);
>         sb.append(tempName);
>         answer = sb.toString();
>     }    if (endpoint.getConfiguration().needToNormalize()) \{
>         answer = normalizePath(answer);
>     }    answer = FileUtil.compactPath(answer, getFileSeparator());    return 
> answer;
> }
>  
> *Issue Location:*
> The issue occurs in the line:
> StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder(tempName.length() + prefix.length() + 1);
>  
> If {{tempName}} is {{{}null{}}}, calling {{tempName.length()}} or 
> {{tempName.lastIndexOf()}} will result in a {{{}NullPointerException{}}}.
> *Steps to Reproduce:*
>  # Call {{createTempFileName}} with an {{Exchange}} object where 
> {{endpoint.getTempFileName().evaluate(exchange, String.class)}} may return 
> {{{}null{}}}.
>  # Observe that if {{tempName}} is {{{}null{}}}, a {{NullPointerException}} 
> occurs.
> *Expected Behavior:*
> The method should handle the case where {{tempName}} may be {{{}null{}}}. If 
> {{tempName}} is {{{}null{}}}, a default value should be used or a check 
> should be added to avoid invoking methods on a {{null}} object.
> *Actual Behavior:*
> A {{NullPointerException}} is thrown when {{tempName}} is {{{}null{}}}, which 
> may interrupt the file creation or processing flow.
> *Suggested Solution:*
> Add a null check for {{tempName}} after it is assigned. For example:
> if (tempName == null) \{
>     tempName = "defaultTempName"; // or handle appropriately for your use case
> }
>  
> Alternatively, consider handling {{null}} scenarios with a fallback or 
> error-handling mechanism to avoid this exception.
> *Impact:*
> This issue disrupts file processing, potentially causing failures in 
> downstream applications depending on file operations.
