I was using spring data with neo4j.
I used @Query annotation to place the query in the repository, the query was as follows
@Query(value = "START me=node({0}), friend=node({1}) "
+ "MATCH p=shortestPath(me-[:ACTIVEFRIEND*..]->friend)"
+ " RETURN p")
public Iterable<EntityPath<User, User>> getShortestPathBetween(User a, User b);
In the controller I am accessing it as
Iterable<EntityPath<User, User>> shortestPathBetween = this.queryService.getShortestPathBetween(user, friend);
for (EntityPath<User, User> path : shortestPathBetween) {
Iterator<User> iter = path.<User>nodeEntities().iterator();
}
When it tries to access path.nodeEntities, it is causing this error:
nested exception is java.lang.NullPointerException] with root cause
java.lang.NullPointerException
