Description

We have discovered a very odd behavior of customer contract synchronization.

Synchronization has been linked against the table in MSSQL (net.sourceforge.jtds.jdbc.Driver).
The system was created as duplicate a system for synchronizing identity.
An error has occurred whenever synchronization is started:

java.lang.NullPointerException

        at org.identityconnectors.framework.impl.api.BufferedResultsProxy.invoke(BufferedResultsProxy.java:262)

No LogItems were created. The error was only in the main synchronization log.
We have never been able to simulate this problem.
Solution: re-creating the system with the same settings (including synchronization).
After mapping has been reselected in a failed sync, this synchronization has started to work properly.

I came across the situation again in contracts synchronization. I return a valid String value from my transformation script into Contract's attribute Guarantees and then the synchronization immidiately fails with Nullpointer exception.

Alltoghether the sync. mapping consist of only 3 attributes. owner, guarantee, validTill.

Problem was in the custom sync filter.

If was selected token attribute and this attribute was mapped as "owner" attribute, then this nullpointer (for contract sync) was throwed.
Before workaround worked, because after mapping (selected in sync) was changed, then the token attribute is always cleared.
