Problem with campaignService.getCampaign

[bram withaar]

i'm using the java api, and V11 of the api.
The java code throws an error on this line:
thisCampaign = campaignService.getCampaign( id );

id is a valid int, and it is the valid id of one of our campaigns, the
code does a String to int conversion on the line above the failing
one: int id = Integer.valueOf(CURRENT_VALUE).intValue();

The error thrown is:
Error: null
java.lang.NumberFormatException: null
at java.lang.Long.parseLong(Long.java:377)

at nl.kieskeurig.adWords.GoogleAdWords.echo(GoogleAdWords.java:354)

I'm new to this adwords stuff (and to the crashing application), so
i'm a little stunned at the thrown error. Looks like the error is in
the ServiceAccountant, but how do i find out what's going wrong there?

The same code, with the same credentials, ran fine a month ago.

Hello Bram,

Hmmm, based on the stack trace in the exception, it appears that the
responseTime SOAP header was present in your response but had a value
of null. The client library obviously should handle this gracefully
rather than throwing an exception, and I'll flag it for a fix in the
next release of the library.

In the meantime, though, I'm curious as to why you're getting
responses that have empty responseTime headers all of a sudden. Could
you enable SOAP logging via AdWordsServiceLogger.log() and pass along
the request and response messages illustrating the problem, with any
sensitive password and token information X-ed out?

Cheers,

Hello Jefrey,

Thanks for your follow-up. I've been away a couple of days, so a late
response from me.
I've enabled the AdWordsServiceLogger, and added the output (with
credentials X-ed ).
The code still crashes with the same error, so nothing changed ;-(.

Hope to hear from you soon.

[AdWords API Advisor]

Hello Bram,

I just wanted to apologize for the delay in getting back to you. We
are in the process of putting together an updated version of the Java
AdWords API client library that will put in specific checks in that
code path to ensure that the values are valid before trying to convert
them to longs. I'll let you know as soon as there is something
available to test.

Cheers,

Hello Bram,

An updated version of the Java client library has been released at

http://code.google.com/p/google-api-adwords-java/

It contains some extra exception handling which hopefully should deal
with the error you were seeing. Could you please try upgrading and see
if things are working for you now?

Cheers,
