Using a MappedSuperclass with IdClass causes NullPointerException in OpenJPA 
when having classes with persistent fields of the superclass type.

                 Key: OPENJPA-1978
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OPENJPA-1978
             Project: OpenJPA
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 2.1.0
         Environment: independent, tested on Mac OS X (10.5/10.6) and Linux 
2.6.32
            Reporter: Sascha Just


We got a MappedSuperclass A with IdClass APK. The class B extends A using 
inheritance type 'TAPE_PER_CLASS'. 
The class C holds a field of type A. OpenJPA crashes with a 
NullPointerException in org.apache.openjpa.jdbc.meta.MappingInfo#mergeColumn. 

We tried different annotation strategies to tackle this problem but didn't find 
a way to get rid of the NullPointerException. While looking at the bug database 
we found a lot of issues that might be related to this problem but weren't able 
to track down the cause of the error.

I will attach a stacktrace and a maven project containing a testcase for the 
above scenario reproducing the error.
