----------------------------------

             Summary: NPE was thrown out when a @OrderBy modified column is 
being persisted.
                 Key: OPENJPA-2429
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OPENJPA-2429
             Project: OpenJPA
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: datacache
    Affects Versions: 2.2.1
         Environment: Windows 7
WebSphere 8.5
            Reporter: Kymair Wu


Following NPE was thrown out when a @OrderBy modified column is being persisted.

Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException
        at 
org.apache.openjpa.datacache.DataCachePCDataImpl.clearInverseRelationCache(DataCachePCDataImpl.java:179)
        at 
org.apache.openjpa.datacache.DataCachePCDataImpl.storeField(DataCachePCDataImpl.java:159)

I notice that getOrderDeclaration() of FieldMetaData will return null when both 
_orders and _orderDec are null, which cause the NPE.

The only place _orders will be set after class initialization seems to be 
getOrders()? But getOrders() is not involved for all the FieldMetaData of 
"fields[i].getInverseMetaDatas()"

I'm not sure whether this is a OpenJPA issue but whether this NPE should be 
handled internally? 

Google returns a potential case but no more information found. See 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OPENJPA-2096?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel
 and

Thanks!
