NPE in HqlSqlWalker, if named parameter contains a "." ------------------------------------------------------ Key: HHH-3715 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-3715 Project: Hibernate Core Issue Type: Bug Components: query-hql Affects Versions: 3.3.1 Reporter: Andreas Sahlbach Priority: Minor Query used: select company from example.PersistentCompany as company join company.attributes as attr where attr.value like :id.krias With this query I got a NullPointerException in HqlSqlWalker (see Stacktrace below). After some debugging I changed my query to select company from example.PersistentCompany as company join company.attributes as attr where attr.value like :krias which works perfectly. I guess the parser misinterpretes the "." in the parametername as tries to resolve a "krias" property. The NPE occurs, because there is no "next sibling" for the "krias" node. I suggest to harden your code against such a parameter name. Error would be ok, if "." in parameter names are not allowed, but there should be no NPE which gives no real hint about the cause.
