Workaround for Apex switch bug when multiple values and one of them is null?
The switch returns the wrong value for null for this case where there are multiple when values and one of them is null in API 43.0:
@IsTest
static void test() {
// Desired outcomes
System.assertEquals(1, f('a'));
System.assertEquals(2, f('b'));
System.assertEquals(2, f('c'));
System.assertEquals(3, f('d'));
System.assertEquals(0, f(''));
System.assertEquals(0, f(null)); // Fails
}
private static Integer f(String s) {
// Incorrectly returns 3 for null
switch on s {
when null, '' { return 0; }
when 'a' { return 1; }
when 'b', 'c' { return 2; }
when else { return 3; }
}
}
Is there a workaround for this?

I don't suppose you've logged a bug for this? I'm sure @ca_peterson would love to know about this (if he doesn't already).

@sfdcfox If you mean via a case, sure I'll do that next week unless someone says it is already known.

One workaround is to separate the values. All the asserts pass for this code:
private static Integer f(String s) {
// Correctly returns 0 for null
switch on s {
when null { return 0; }
when '' { return 0; }
when 'a' { return 1; }
when 'b', 'c' { return 2; }
when else { return 3; }
}
}
PS
I've reported this bug to Salesforce via case 21246533.
PPS
This is now posted as a Salesforce's Known Issue Null condition in Switch statement not recognized as expected when multiple conditions exist meaning it is likely to be fixed.
