Can’t instantiate class using Hibernate createQuery

I’m trying to use hibernate to create objects, which are not domain models, but I get a incomprehensible error message.

My Java code:

public BoxMeasureStat getBoxStat(long box_id, long ) {

    TypedQuery<BoxMeasureStat> data = em.createQuery(
            "SELECT NEW org.massema.util.BoxMeasureStat(MIN(bm.value), AVG(bm.value) , MAX(bm.value), MAX(bm.start_time) ) "
                + "FROM  bm WHERE bm.box_id = :box_id "
                + "AND bm.type_id = :type_id "
                + "order by start_time desc limit 1", BoxMeasureStat.class)
                .setParameter("box_id", box_id)
                .setParameter("type_id", type_id);

    BoxMeasureStat result = data.getSingleResult(); 

    return result;
}

The class:

package org.massema.util;

import java.lang.Float;
import java.util.Date;

import org.joda.time.DateTime;


public class BoxMeasureStat {

    private String type;
    private Float min;
    private Double avg;
    private Float max;
    private String time;
    public BoxMeasureStat( Float min, Double avg, Float max, DateTime time) {
        super();

        this.min = (min);
        this.avg = (avg);
        this.max = (max);
        this.time = time.toString(QueryResultConverter.dateFormatter);
    }


    public String getType() {
        return type;
    }
    public void setType(String type) {
        this.type = type;
    }
    public Float getMin() {
        return min;
    }
    public void setMin(Float min) {
        this.min = min;
    }
    public Double getAvg() {
        return avg;
    }
    public void setAvg(Double avg) {
        this.avg = avg;
    }
    public Float getMax() {
        return max;
    }
    public void setMax(Float max) {
        this.max = max;
    }
    public String getTime() {
        return time;
    }
    public void setTime(String time) {
        this.time = time;
    }
    public void setTime(DateTime time) {
        this.time = time.toString(QueryResultConverter.dateFormatter);
    }

}

The schema for the table:

CREATE TABLE boxmeasurements
(
  box_id bigint NOT NULL,
  type_id bigint NOT NULL,
  start_time timestamp with time zone NOT NULL,
  value real,
  last_modified timestamp with time zone,
  CONSTRAINT boxmeasurements_pkey PRIMARY KEY (box_id, type_id, start_time),
  CONSTRAINT fkdb5acd82c1990d35 FOREIGN KEY (type_id)
      REFERENCES boxmeasurementtypes (id) MATCH SIMPLE
      ON UPDATE NO ACTION ON DELETE NO ACTION,
  CONSTRAINT fkdb5acd82e3f182be FOREIGN KEY (box_id)
      REFERENCES box (id) MATCH SIMPLE
      ON UPDATE NO ACTION ON DELETE NO ACTION,
  CONSTRAINT chk_lastmodified CHECK (date_part('timezone'::text, last_modified) = 0::double precision),
  CONSTRAINT chk_start_time CHECK (date_part('timezone'::text, start_time) = 0::double precision)
)
WITH (
  OIDS=FALSE
);
ALTER TABLE boxmeasurements
  OWNER TO postgres;

Versions:

Hibernate: 4.19
Hibernate-jpa-2.0-api
Java: 1.7
PostgreSql: 9.3.5
Ubuntu: 12.04

Frankly, i’m clueless about why it cannot instantiate this class.

Answer

You get a NullPointerException in the constructor, so the time argument that your query retrieves from the database is probably NULL. Try to change the constructor to cope with NULL values:

public BoxMeasureStat( Float min, Double avg, Float max, DateTime time) {
    super();

    this.min = (min);
    this.avg = (avg);
    this.max = (max);
    if (time != null) {
        this.time = time.toString(QueryResultConverter.dateFormatter);
    }
}
