Adding mappings to Configuration before FilterDefinition leads to NullPointerException -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: HHH-2091 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-2091 Project: Hibernate3 Type: Bug Components: core Versions: 3.2.0.cr4 Environment: Hibernate 3.2.cr4 (r10506) Java 5 Reporter: Josh Moore Attachments: hbmbindertest.zip The exception below is thrown when a mapping file contains a reference to a filter which is not in that or another mapping file. The call to addFilterDefinition must be done first. <code> public class HbmBinderTest extends TestCase { // This throws a NPE unless the filter definition is included. protected void addMappings(String[] files, Configuration cfg) { // cfg.addFilterDefinition( new FilterDefinition( // "securityFilter","true",new HashMap()) ); super.addMappings(files, cfg); } </code> java.lang.NullPointerException at org.hibernate.cfg.HbmBinder.parseFilter(HbmBinder.java:2935) at org.hibernate.cfg.HbmBinder.createClassProperties(HbmBinder.java:2110) at org.hibernate.cfg.HbmBinder.createClassProperties(HbmBinder.java:2031) at org.hibernate.cfg.HbmBinder.bindRootPersistentClassCommonValues(HbmBinder.java:359) at org.hibernate.cfg.HbmBinder.bindRootClass(HbmBinder.java:273) at org.hibernate.cfg.HbmBinder.bindRoot(HbmBinder.java:144) at org.hibernate.cfg.Configuration.add(Configuration.java:424) at org.hibernate.cfg.Configuration.addInputStream(Configuration.java:465) at org.hibernate.cfg.Configuration.addResource(Configuration.java:494) at org.hibernate.test.TestCase.addMappings(TestCase.java:230) at org.hibernate.test.TestCase.buildSessionFactory(TestCase.java:180) at org.hibernate.test.TestCase.setUp(TestCase.java:157) -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/secure/Administrators.... - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
