… is broken!
specifically:
public static Session currentSession() throws HibernateException {
Session session = (Session) threadLocal.get();
if (session == null) {
if (sessionFactory == null) {
try {
cfg.configure(CONFIG_FILE_LOCATION);
sessionFactory = cfg.buildSessionFactory();
}
catch (Exception e) {
System.err.println("%%%% Error Creating SessionFactory %%%%");
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
session = sessionFactory.openSession();
threadLocal.set(session);
}
return session;
}
… eats up an exception and logs it, only to cause a NullPointerException next statement after the handler has executed. Might as well throw e after you’ve printStackTraced()’d it.
