RE: [OFBiz] Dev - Using view-entity in a form

I've created the following screen, but I keep getting "
java.lang.NullPointerException (null)" if I pass in the partyId in the URL.
I just can't seem to get the screen to correctly query the Employee
entity-view that I created.  If I don't send a parameter, it will properly
go into "create" mode.:



<screen name="EditEmployee">
  <section>
   <actions>
      <set field="partyId" from-field="parameters.partyId"/>
      <set field="donePage" from-field="parameters.DONE_PAGE"
default-value="viewprofile"/>
      <entity-one entity-name="Employee" value-name="Person">
            <field-map env-name="partyId" field-name="partyId" />
      </entity-one>
   </actions>
   <widgets>
      <decorator-screen name="CommonDecorator">
         <decorator-section name="body">
           <include-form name="EditEmployee"
location="component://aztec-hrms/webapp/aztec-hrms/forms/HrmsForms.xml"/>
         </decorator-section>
      </decorator-screen>
   </widgets>
 </section>
</screen>

Subject: [OFBiz] Dev - Using view-entity in a form

I created a view-entity (Employee) that queries the Person table.  I then
created a form "Edit Employee" see below.  The form works when I want to
create anew employee, but when I pass the personId, I get:

org.ofbiz.base.util.GeneralException: Error rendering screen [EditEmployee]:
java.lang.NullPointerException (null)

I know I must be missing something very basic.  Can someone help?

Thanks,

-Mike
