-----------------------------------
Summary: Support List-typed fields for Array coercion
Key: NIFI-5731
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-5731
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Core Framework
Affects Versions: 1.7.1
Reporter: Alex Savitsky
This Jira concerns the nifi-record module specifically.
Currently, the toArray method ofÂ
org.apache.nifi.serialization.record.util.DataTypeUtils does not support values
of type java.util.List to convert to Object[], despite the conversion being a
trivial one-liner:
{code:java}
return ((List) value).toArray();
{code}
The Record being converted doesn't always have the control to enforce all its
arrays being actual arrays and not collections (e.g., if the Record was created
in Groovy), and it would be nice to have it converted on the fly, rather than
having to transform it manually.
