Not tolerant to null object input

[lorenzo93]

I started today working with this library and this was my first error. Not good!

Any way to correct this?

Same problem here, please fix this!

I think it happened when the value at last column is null, otherwise the cell with null value will merged into its next right cell.

@andy176631 That was indeed the case. The pull request should fix this behaviour.

@vdmeer Can you say if this project is dead? I don't ask you to do something, please, just answer, it won't take much time.

This is not a bug. Null is used as HTML colspan. If you have null in one row, then at least in one row you must have a non null value. Compare:

        //this example works
        AsciiTable table = new AsciiTable();
        table.addRule();
        table.addRow("A", null, "B");
        table.addRule();
        table.addRow(1, 2, 3);
        table.addRule();
        System.out.println(table.render());

        //this example doesn't work
        AsciiTable table = new AsciiTable();
        table.addRule();
        table.addRow("A", null, "B");
        table.addRule();
        table.addRow(1, null, 3); // <--  null
        table.addRule();
        System.out.println(table.render());
