Question
Null pointer exception in "obj- refresh and lock ' method
HI All,
Getting below exception in activity for the method 'Obj-Refresh and lock'
java.lang.NullPointerException
Step page showing as 'RunRecordPrimaryPage' instead og the page which i have given
Below is the activity....
Here in step 4, looping through a page list and calling activity which have multiple activity calls.
But after looping through pages, in step 5 'WorkPage' not having the all properties and values like pzInsKey etc,
It causing save to happen in BLOB, not for the record opened in step 2 by 'Obj-Open-By-Handle'.
Hi Denny, Good Morning!
... would it be convincing to test the iteration & desired behavior by commenting method 'Obj-Refresh-And-Lock' applied on work page (step 3.3)
Please share your thoughts/comments, Thank you!

Some questions and comments:
1) Make sure you use something like a "StepStatusFail" test as a post-condition on each obj-open-by-whatever so you don't continue with code that assumes the page has been populated when it may not have been.
2) I don't understand why you would want an obj-refresh-and-lock right after an obj-open-by-handle. Wouldn't the obj-open-by-handle already have refreshed and locked ?
3) If your commit is only to commit what was just obj-save'd, can you remove it and use the "write now" checkmark on the obj-save ? See if that makes a difference even though it's not exactly clear why it should, but it's in general safer since the "write now" checkmark will commit only what you wrote with obj-save rather than committing other stuff not even involved with your local activity at all.

Hello Denny,
It is difficult to answer your question without more context. What version of PRPC/Pega are you using? If possible, a stack trace and screen image of the activites in question may allow someone to determine the cause of the NPE.
