RequestFactory Nullpointer Exception with EntityProxy


I want to send Generic Objects through the wire with RequestFactories. Because I want to test on the server what Class it is and return a value from Database for the requested class.

For example i send the request with a NewsProxy or a ProfileProxy (each extends EntityProxy) or some other proxy.

This is my client code:

private void loadComments() {
    NewsProxy proxy = **Some News Proxy**
    ICommentRequest commentRequest = clientfactory.getRequestFactory().commentRequest();
    commentRequest.getComments(proxy).fire();

}

Interface ICommentRequest:

@Service(value = Comment.class, locator = OperatorServiceLocator.class)
public interface ICommentRequest extends RequestContext {
    Request<List<ICommentProxy>> getComments(EntityProxy object); 
}

Server impl: Comment.java:

public static List<Comment> getComments(Object o) {

    ...

}

When I fire this event, I get an NullPointerException. I don't know where...

Solution

  • you are trying to get the object from the collection referenced by null

    Object key = null;
    //ConcurentHashMap: 768
    int hash = hash(key.hashCode());
