Hadoop PIg-NullPointerException与ToDate内置函数

我对Pig的内置函数ToDate有问题

我有一个名为result2的变量，其格式如下：

{search_file::DATE_HADO: chararray,search_file::IP: chararray,A::COD_IP: chararray,A::DAT_START: chararray,A::NDI_START: chararray}

argl = foreach result2 GENERATE ToDate(DATE_HADO,'yyyy/mm/dd HH:mm:ss'), IP, COD_IP, ToDate(DAT_START,'yyyy/mm/dd HH:mm:ss'), NDI_START;

dump argl;

DATE_HADO和DAT_START字段如下所示：

(2014/03/10 00:00:00)
(2014/03/10 00:00:01)
(2014/03/10 00:00:00)

当我执行代码时，会引发此异常：

java.lang.NullPointerException

我不明白，我的代码看起来不错，但不起作用

你知道为什么吗

谢谢

您的一些日期字段可能为空。首先检查它们是否为null，否则会得到一个NullpointerException。此外，日期模式应为

yyyy/MM/dd HH:MM:ss

，月份用两个大写字母m表示
