Description Karen Butzke CLA 2011-02-28 09:10:02 EST 
1. Create a new Generic 2.0 JPA project with an orm.xml file in the META-INF folder.
2. Create a new subfolder in META-INF
3. move the orm.xml file to the subfolder, you get an NPE:

Comment 1 Nan Li CLA 2011-06-07 12:41:25 EDT 
This bug is fixed with the proposed patch of bug 341415. The changes made in AbstractMappingFileRef change the way a mapping file synchronizes with resource model, which leads to the nonexistent implied mapping file (becomes a specified mapping file after being moved to a subfolder) being properly handled.

Verified in Build I-3.4.0-20110731180834

Verified you can move orm.xml mapping file without error.  See the link to view test steps for verification. http://wiki.eclipse.org/Dali_3.0.1
