And I also assume that every xml element has a parent that is the element which contains it.

So PackageMetadata has a parent JDOMetadata.

And each element in metadata that is contained in another has a parent. Except JDOMetadata that has no parent.

Hi,

I'm (finally) writing some test code for the metadata feature and have run into a problem.

Here's the code:

   /** test getMetadata with abstract class name*/
   public void testAbstractClassName() {
       pm = getPM();
       String className = "org.apache.jdo.tck.pc.company.Employee";
       TypeMetadata metadata = pmf.getMetadata(className);
       assertNotNull(ASSERTION_FAILED
+ "metadata must not be null for abstract class" + className, metadata);
       dump(metadata);
       Metadata parent = metadata.getParent();
       assertNotNull(ASSERTION_FAILED
+ "parent metadata must not be null for abstract class" + className, parent);
       String name = metadata.getName();
String packageName = ((PackageMetadata) metadata.getParent()).getName();
       assertEquals(ASSERTION_FAILED
+ "metadata name and class name must match", className, packageName + "." + name);
   }

The parent metadata is the issue. For a TypeMetadata the parent should be a PackageMetadata. But it looks like getParent() returns null for a ClassMetadata.

Before I file a JIRA I thought I'd double check...
