Null properties cause create/update to fail

[andybellenie]

It is possible to have a null value in CF (e.g. returned from a JSON object). Passing in a properties struct with null keys will cause an error:

<cfset test = {title = javaCast("null", 0)}>
<cfset model("payment").new(properties=test)>

Do you get this error?

"Element TITLE is undefined in a CFML structure referenced as part of an expression"

[perdjurner]

The following fixes (well, it skips setting the property) for me on CF 8:

Wrap line 400 in properties.cfm with:

if (StructKeyExists(arguments.properties, loc.key))
{
loc.rv[loc.key] = arguments.properties[loc.key];
}

[andybellenie]

No I get:
"the value from key [TITLE] is NULL, which is the same as not existing in CFML"

This is a Railo error

[andybellenie]

I think we should wrap the whole block inside the loop, there's no need to take any action when the key is null

[perdjurner]

I agree.

Done.
