[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Created: (HHH-3232) Null Pointer Exception on Sort in a set

Null Pointer Exception on Sort in a set --------------------------------------- Key: HHH-3232 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-3232 Project: Hibernate3 Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 3.0 final Environment: Windows Apache mySQL Tomcat Reporter: FOIRET Priority: Critical Hi, Find below a null pointer exception error when i try to find the ElemactionDAO by his ID (vdo.epi.hibernate.ElemactionDAO.findById) This error appears when i add a sort="natural" in the set of the entity (Action). An Action contains a set of Elemaction (Find after a part of the mapping file Action) This parameter resolves my sort issue in the set but it creates this one ... I use a TreeSet in the POJO Action for the Elemaction Could you tell me what is the issue ? java.lang.NullPointerException at java.lang.String.compareTo(Unknown Source) at
