----------------------------
Hi Kathey,
My guess (and it's just a guess) is that, while startPosition itself may be
null, it probably is not correct for a non-null startPosition to have
startPosition[i] be null for any i.
For what it's worth: startPosition in the above code comes from
TableScanResultSet.startPosition, which is in turn loaded form
TableScanResultSet.startKeyGetter. The startKeyGetter is, I believe, generated
from PredicateList.generateStartKey(). So if you are able to trace through
that method to see which predicate is causing the "null" to be generated, that
might be a good starting point. Perhaps the short-circuit logic added for
DERBY-1357 is somehow leaving one or more predicates in a state that causes
incorrect generation of a null (instead of a DataValueDescriptor that is
"isNull()")? Again, I'm just guessing--maybe that's helpful, maybe not...

> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: SQL
> Affects Versions: 10.2.2.0
> Environment: Windows XP, Java 5.0, JDBC, Derby 10.2.2.0

> The following error was repeatedly thrown when we tried to run a select query
> via JDBC. Strangely, the exact same select query did not trigger any error
> when run from the command line console. After we added an index, the error
> went away completely.
> java.lang.NullPointerException
