Rick Curtis commented on OPENJPA-2429: -------------------------------------- Can you put together a small unit test that exposes this problem? If that is too onerous, posting snippets of the Entities involved would help recreate the problem. > NPE was thrown out when a @OrderBy modified column is being persisted. > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: OPENJPA-2429 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OPENJPA-2429 > Project: OpenJPA > Issue Type: Bug > Components: datacache > Affects Versions: 2.2.1 > Environment: Windows 7 > WebSphere 8.5 > Reporter: Kymair Wu > > Following NPE was thrown out when a @OrderBy modified column is being > persisted. > {quote} > Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException > at > org.apache.openjpa.datacache.DataCachePCDataImpl.clearInverseRelationCache(DataCachePCDataImpl.java:179) > at > org.apache.openjpa.datacache.DataCachePCDataImpl.storeField(DataCachePCDataImpl.java:159) > {quote} > I notice that getOrderDeclaration() of FieldMetaData will return null when > both _orders and _orderDec are null, which cause the NPE. > The only place _orders will be set after class initialization seems to be > getOrders()? But getOrders() is not involved for all the FieldMetaData of > "fields[i].getInverseMetaDatas()" > I'm not sure whether this is a OpenJPA issue but whether this NPE should be > handled internally? > Google returns a potential case but no more information found.
