    NullPointerException at javassist.bytecode.annotation.ArrayM

    theyurinator

      Hello,

      I am getting a NullPointerException somewhere beyond my control.

      Here is my code

      ClassPool pool = ClassPool.getDefault();
       CtClass cc = pool.makeClass(class_name);
       cc.stopPruning(true);
       ClassFile cf = cc.getClassFile();
       ConstPool cp = cf.getConstPool();
      
       try {
       CtClass persistent_class = pool.get("net.sourceforge.pbeans.annotations.PersistentClass");
      
       Annotation a = new Annotation(cp, persistent_class);
       a.addMemberValue("table", new StringMemberValue(class_name, cp));
       a.addMemberValue("audoIncrement", new BooleanMemberValue(true, cp));
      
       AnnotationsAttribute attr = new AnnotationsAttribute(cp, AnnotationsAttribute.visibleTag);
       attr.setAnnotation(a);
      
       cf.addAttribute(attr);
       cf.setVersionToJava5();
       }
       catch (NotFoundException e1) { e1.printStackTrace(); }


      and this is the stack trace

      Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException
      at javassist.bytecode.annotation.ArrayMemberValue.write(ArrayMemberValue.java:132)
      at javassist.bytecode.annotation.Annotation.write(Annotation.java:303)
      at javassist.bytecode.AnnotationsAttribute.setAnnotations(AnnotationsAttribute.java:246)

      at com.....PBeanGenerator.generatePBean(PBeanGenerator.java:61)
      at com.....PBeanGenerator.main(PBeanGenerator.java:145)

      I have not added an ArrayMemberValue so I'm confused why I'm getting a null pointer there. Am I missing something?
