Description

The following code in DateField is causing exceptions for me:

/**

• Return the field Date value, or null if value was empty or a parsing
• error occured.
  *
• @return the field Date value
  */
  public Date getDate() {
  if (value != null || value.length() > 0) {
  try { Date date = getDateFormat().parse(value); return new Date( date.getTime()); }

  catch (ParseException pe)

  { return null; }

} else

{ return null; }

}

The first line is causing a NPE if value = null.... the || should be a && ???
