Dennis Sosnoski updated JIBX-32:
--------------------------------

    Priority: Major  (was: Blocker)

> Provide more info when nulls are passed to marshalling context
> --------------------------------------------------------------
>
>          Key: JIBX-32
>          URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JIBX-32
>      Project: JiBX
>         Type: Improvement
>   Components: core
>     Versions: 1.0-beta3c
>     Reporter: Joshua Davies
>     Assignee: Dennis Sosnoski
>      Fix For: CVS
>  Attachments: MarshallingContext.diff
>
>
> From the JiBX FAQ:
>   Q. Why do I get a java.lang.NullPointerException when I try to   
>   marshal a document?
>   A. The most likely cause is that you've got a null value for an 
>   object that's not marked as optional in the binding definition. 
>   ... snip ...
>   add a pre-get method to that class for debugging purposes 
>   ... snip ...
> It occurs to me that it's relatively simple to change that NPE to a jibx 
> exception that identifies that "name" value that was passed into 
> MarshallingContext.element with a null value so that the user doesn't have to 
> modify his bindings file just to figure out which item was null (which isn't 
> always possible, especially when it happens in production).
> I've already applied this patch to beta3c (which we're using here); I'll 
> attach the same patch to this issue.
