Description

I use Table API to read a *.ods documnet. Some time a NullPointerException will be thrown when call OdfTableCell.getCurrencyValue(). This method is realized as follow in ODFDOM:
public double getCurrencyValue() {
if (getTypeAttr() == OfficeValueTypeAttribute.Value.CURRENCY)

{ return mCellElement.getOfficeValueAttribute().doubleValue(); }

else

{ throw new IllegalArgumentException(); }

}
The reason that NullPointerException thrown is mCellElement.getOfficeValueAttribute() get null value.
Obviously, getOfficeValueAttribute() return null is valid. Such as, the cell is set as CURRENCY type, but it isn't given a value. The return value of mCellElement.getOfficeValueAttribute() should be checked and a default currency value may be needed.
