OK. I ran your code against biojava-live and my Oracle db and got the same errors as you report. On further analysis I found that, as your feature should have no location (Location.empty), if you look in the database it doesn't have any there either, which is correct. However the code that extracts features from BioSQL expects all features to have locations and throws the exception that you are seeing if it can't find at least one per feature.
I altered org.biojava.bio.seq.db.biosql.FeaturesSQL so that if it could not find a location for a feature at read-time, it would set the feature object location to Location.empty. I have committed this change to biojava-live, so you will need to use CVS to check out a copy of biojava-live to see if this has solved your problem. For the copy of your code which I have here, it works fine. cheers, Richard Richard Holland Bioinformatics Specialist GIS extension 8199 --------------------------------------------- This email is confidential and may be privileged.
