hi all, using the helloworld-ws-sdo-webapp as a starting point, i'm trying to create a service/component within a composite. when deploying the composite in tomcat, i'm getting a npe. below is my composite: <composite xmlns="http://www.osoa.org/xmlns/sca/1.0"targetNamespace="http://org.soa.services"xmlns:dcrisoa="http://org.soa.services"xmlns:dbsdo="http://tuscany.apache.org/xmlns/sca/databinding/sdo/1.0"name="Address-Service-Composite";><service name="AddressService" promote="AddressServiceImpl"><interface.java interface="org.soa.services.AddressService" /><binding.ws wsdlElement="http://org.soa.services#wsdl.binding(AddressServiceSoapBinding)"/></service><component name="AddressServiceImpl"><implementation.java class="org.soa.services.AddressServiceImpl" /></component><component name="AddressServiceComponent"><implementation.java class="org.soa.services.AddressServiceComponent"/><reference name="addressService" ><interface.java interface="org.soa.services.AddressService" /><binding.ws wsdlElement="http://org.soa.services#wsdl.port(AddressService/AddressServiceSoapPort)"/></reference></component></ here's the npe from tomcat:
