NullPointerException in RuntimeSupport.DefaultMethodHandler.
I'm using javassist-3.8.1.GA with hibernate-core-3.3.0.SP1. I have a javassist problem that appears to occur when two different threads are doing a JavassistLazyInitializer.getProxy() on the exact same entity class + id but in two different sessions. One of the threads ends up in RuntimeSupport.DefaultMethodHandler.invoke() with the "proceed" argument set to null, which results in a NullPointerException. According to the javadoc for MethodHandler.invoke(), the proceed argument "is null if the overridden mehtod is abstract or declared in the interface", so I'm not sure why DefaultMethodHandler.invoke() doesn't check for null. But my guess is that there's some sort of race condition causing this.
Here's one thing that might provide a clue: JavassistLazyInitializer.getProxy() is calling Class.newInstance() to create a new instance of my entity class (Carrier). The failure happens when a final field is being initialized during construction of that instance. The final field is declared in an abstract parent class (AbstractCodeParentEntity), and is initialized by calling an inherited method (createStringFieldValue). In other words, my Carrier entity inherits this field:
private final FieldValue code = createStringFieldValue("code");
This failure always occurs when createStringFieldValue is executing, so perhaps that provides a clue as to why the "proceed" argument ends up being null.
Please let me know what other information I can provide to help diagnose the problem and whether you can suggest any workarounds.
Below I've included the stack of the two threads that were simultaneously suspended by a setting a conditional breakpoint in Eclipse when proceed == null. The first is the thread that hit the breakpoint.
