NullPointerException on using chart.toImage(...) API

Aspose.Cells Product Family

Hi,


I am using the latest Aspose.Cells v17.4

On generating image of Chart1 in Sheet1 in the attached excel document [xlsx and xlxb] using the API chart.toImage(…),
we get the following null pointer exception.

java.lang.NullPointerException
at com.aspose.cells.zkd.a(Unknown Source)
at com.aspose.cells.zkd.c(Unknown Source)
at com.aspose.cells.zkd.a(Unknown Source)
at com.aspose.cells.zkd.a(Unknown Source)
at com.aspose.cells.zkd.a(Unknown Source)
at com.aspose.cells.Chart.a(Unknown Source)
at com.aspose.cells.Chart.toImage(Unknown Source)

However, this conversion of Chart to Image worked fine in aspose-cells-9.0.7.jar

Can you please look into this issue?

Thanks,
Jaspreet

Hi,


Thanks for the template files and stack trace.

After an initial test, I observed the issue as you mentioned by using the following sample code with your template file. I found an exception “java.lang.NullPointerException” when rendering the chart (in XLSX and XLSB files) to image file format. I also noticed some part of data source of the underlying chart is external which might be the reason to get this exception. Anyways, we got to evaluate the issue first.
e.g
Sample code:

Workbook workbook = new Workbook(“test_chart±+Copy.xlsx”);
Worksheet worksheet = workbook.getWorksheets().get(0);
Chart chart = worksheet.getCharts().get(“Sheet1”);
ImageOrPrintOptions imageOptions = new ImageOrPrintOptions();
imageOptions.setImageFormat(ImageFormat.getPng());
chart.toImage(“out1.png”, imageOptions);//Exception
chart.toPdf(“out2.pdf”);

I have logged a ticket with an id “CELLSJAVA-42268” for your issue. We will look into it soon.

Once we have an update on it, we will let you know here.

Thank you.
