Hi all,

I am using OpenJPA 2.4.1 in Karaf and am seeing a NPE thrown...here is stacktrace:

java.lang.NullPointerException
    at org.apache.openjpa.persistence.criteria.PathImpl.get(PathImpl.java:245)
    at 
org.renci.binning.dao.jpa.clinbin.DiagnosticBinningJobDAOImpl.findByExample(DiagnosticBinningJobDAOImpl.java:145)


That line in PathImpl is as follows:

if  (getType()!=  attr.getDeclaringType()) {


I am fairly sure that the "attr" is null as I have a check for that in my "DiagnosticBinningJobDAOImpl.findByExample" method. Here is snippet:

                Join<DiagnosticBinningJob, DX> diagnosticBinningJobDXJoin = 
root.join(DiagnosticBinningJob_.dx);

                logger.info("is join null: {}", diagnosticBinningJobDXJoin == 
null);

                logger.info("is expression null: {}", 
diagnosticBinningJobDXJoin.get(DX_.id));


The last line there throws the NPE & I never see the log message, "is expression null". When I run this from within my editor as a JUnit test case, the exception is not thrown. I think this has something to do with the class enhancing. Yet, during the build, I see that the DX class is enhanced without issue:

837  binning  INFO   [main] openjpa.Tool - Enhancer running on type "class 
org.renci.binning.dao.clinbin.model.DX".


Could this be due to an incorrect dependency version? Like maybe and old version of serp or asm? Any other possible explanations?

Thanks,
Jason
