Josh:

Is Reactor in production mode? Have you tried restarting the ColdFusionprocess to make sure nothing is cached? Have you tried running thereactor compiler after the change to make sure all the files exist?

Thanks Doug for the response.

I am not changing the project name.

Here is the process I typically follow.

1. Download the latest from SVN into a new folder. (This ensures that there
is not even a project folder.)
2. Change the CF mapping.
3. run init=true, if it is a mg app.

And I get the null pointer error.

To resolve it. I delete all of my data files, run the app again and then go
file by file and replace the functions. (Which is an hour long process.)

Please don't get me wrong I LOVE reactor, it has changed the way I write
code for the better. This is the only frustration.

Thanks again.

Josh - To be honest, I don't have the slightest clue.  I am constantly
upgrading reactor on all my projects and I simply don't have this problem.

I need more information.

Here's about the only thing I can guess:  you're changing your project name

when you upgrade. That's the ONLY think that should cause this problem.

Don't forget that you should blow away your /reactor/project folder with

each upgrade.

Here's another idea.  Send us the custom code that's throwing the error when
you upgrade.

Subject: [Reactor for CF] Upgrading Versions - Very Frustrating

Hello,

Almost every time I update my version of reactor from SVN, I have to blow

away all of my project extended class files (the data folder in my app).

If I don't I get the following error:

 Error Occurred While Processing Request The system has attempted to use an
undefined value, which usually indicates a programming error, either in your
code or some system code.

Null Pointers are another name for undefined values.

Resources:


    * Check the ColdFusion documentation to verify that you are using the
correct syntax.
    * Search the Knowledge Base to find a solution to your problem.

Stack Trace


java.lang.NullPointerException

Once I delete the data files and let them be regenerated (and copy and paste
all of my custom functions into the record and gateway objects) it works
fine.

What is going on... This is not standard when updating other frameworks.

What am I doing wrong?
