stack trace - NullPointerException

[busitech]

The following NullPointerException happens when I configure
destinations with bidirectional one-many associations more than one
level deep.



Example:

Company, one-to-many Vendors, one-to-many Items

Items, many-to-one Vendor



The recursive subscription mechanism gets stuck in the Vendor
association of Item and crashes:

Even with one-level bidirectional associations, FDS evenually
loops forever when enough records are in the database, and never
responds to the fill request. I have had to remove all of my
many-to-one entries from metadata when they point back to the
owning entity in order to keep working on my application.

My apologies for the problems. This code has been modified
quite a bit since beta 2 so I believe this problem will just be
fixed in beta 3 (due out soon).
