Errors in config model result in NPE rather than helpful error message
----------------------------------------------------------------------

         Key: TUSCANY-213
         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TUSCANY-213
     Project: Tuscany
        Type: Bug

  Components: Java DAS RDB  
    Reporter: Kevin Williams


Typos in the config.xml can lead to meaningless NPE errors.  
For example, changing from the following change in OrdersOrderDetailsConfig.xml


    <Relationship name="ORDERDETAILS" primaryKeyTable="ANORDER"
        foreignKeyTable="ORDERDETAILS" many="true">
        <KeyPair primaryKeyColumn="ID" foreignKeyColumn="ORDERID"/>
    </Relationship>

to this ...

    <Relationship name="ORDERDETAILS" primaryKeyTable="xxxx"
        foreignKeyTable="ORDERDETAILS" many="true">
        <KeyPair primaryKeyColumn="ID" foreignKeyColumn="ORDERID"/>
    </Relationship>

results in a harsh NPE rather than of a cozy message exlaining that we are 
sorry but we have no table/property named "xxxx"
