>
> This code will reproduce the issue:
> {code}
> new TaskAttemptID().toString();
> {code}
> The issue is that the default constructor leaves the type {{null}}.  The 
> {{get()}} in {{CharTaskTypesMaps.getRepresentingCharacter()}} then throws an 
> NPE on the null type key.
> The simplest solution would be to only call the {{get()}} on line 288 of 
> {{TaskID.java}} if {{type}} is not {{null}} and return some other literal 
> otherwise.  Since no part of the code is tripping on the NPE, what we choose 
> for the literal shouldn't matter.  How about "x"?
