i am not quite sure, but i think that you have to use  
context.createAndRegister(MyType.class);
instead of
context.newObject(MyType.class);

Betreff: Help: getting NPE at ObjectStoreGraphDiff.preprocess
Hi!
 
I am new to Cayenne, and am having some problems.  I have been able to
populate some DB records, but when I try to set up a relationship, I get
an NPE on the commit.  I am using Cayenne 2.0.2.
 
Here is the essential code (with some names changed to protect the
innocent):
 
MyType type = (MyType) context.newObject(MyType.class);
type.setObjectId(new ObjectId(MyType.class.getSimpleName(),
MyType.MYTYPE_ID_PK_COLUMN, 1));
type.setName("MyName");
MyCategory category = (MyCategory)DataObjectUtils.objectForPK(context,
MyCategory.class, 1);
type.setMyCategory(category);
context.commitChanges();
 
The MyType table has fields mytype_id (the primary key), name, and a
mycategory_id (foreign key to the mycategory table).  I am creating a
new "MyType" object with a mytype_id of 1, name of "MyName", and
pointing to a Category object, that is already in the database, with a
primary key of 1.
 
When commitChanges() runs, I get:
 
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException

phDiff.java:184)

      at
com.boxicom.server.db.CreateDb.testStreamTypeAdd(CreateDb.java:96)
      at com.boxicom.server.db.CreateDb.main(CreateDb.java:105)
 
Can anyone help me determine what is going wrong?
 
Thanks much!
Eric
