Build Identifier: When defining both SequenceGenerator and TableGenerator on orm.xml, NullPointerException occurs on building its metadata if pkColumnValue of the TableGenerator is not specified. EX) orm.xml <sequence-generator name="SEQ_GEN" allocation-size="1"/> <table-generator name="TBL_GEN" table="NAME_TBL"/> <attributes> <id name="id"> <generated-value strategy="SEQUENCE" generator="SEQ_GEN"/> </id> </attributes> EX) StackTrace of NPE Internal Exception: java.lang.NullPointerException at org.eclipse.persistence.internal.jpa.EntityManagerSetupImpl.predeploy(EntityManagerSetupImpl.java:1127) at org.eclipse.persistence.jpa.PersistenceProvider.createContainerEntityManagerFactory(PersistenceProvider.java:187) at org.glassfish.persistence.jpa.PersistenceUnitLoader.loadPU(PersistenceUnitLoader.java:205) at org.glassfish.persistence.jpa.PersistenceUnitLoader.<init>(PersistenceUnitLoader.java:119) at org.glassfish.persistence.jpa.JPADeployer$1.visitPUD(JPADeployer.java:214) at org.glassfish.persistence.jpa.JPADeployer$PersistenceUnitDescriptorIterator.iteratePUDs(JPADeployer.java:483) at org.glassfish.persistence.jpa.JPADeployer.createEMFs(JPADeployer.java:221) at org.glassfish.persistence.jpa.JPADeployer.prepare(JPADeployer.java:167) ...

Reproducible: Always
Created attachment 199465 [details] Reproducible application
The reason of this issue is to call getPkColumnValue() in MetadataProject class without checking null. public void addSequenceGenerator(SequenceGeneratorMetadata sequenceGenerator, String defaultCatalog, String defaultSchema) { ... if ((tableGenerator != otherTableGenerator) && (otherTableGenerator.getPkColumnValue() != null) && otherTableGenerator.getPkColumnValue().equals(sequenceGenerator.getSequenceName())) { } ... } According to JPA2.0 spec, pkColumn Value is optional, so it is sometimes omitted.
Created attachment 199466 [details] Patch for this issue Attached a patch based on EclipseLink 2.2.0.v20110202-r8913.
About the attached patch: Because MappedSuperclassAccessor#process() always calls processSequenceGenerator() after calling processTableGenerator(), MetadataProject#addTableGenerator() doesn't seem to throw NPE. However potentially addTableGenerator() also has similar issue in terms of optional SequenceName of SequenceGenerator.

Assigning to myself with the goal of checking the supplied patch.
Looking at including patch in 2.3.1
Fixed in 2.3.1 and trunk. Patch submitted as-is. Added testing to our XML-only model through modification of the metadata files. No specific test added. Regressions will show up if deployment fails on test model. Reviewed by: Tom Ware reviewed user submitted fix Tested with JPA LRG
