In my program, I have a marshaller and an unmarshaller so I can save an ObservableList data. Saving the list as an .xml with the marshaller works but when I try to load the file, I get a NullPointerException. Here is my code:
public void loadPersonDataFromFile(File file) {
JAXBContext context = JAXBContext
.newInstance(EntryListWrapper.class);
Unmarshaller um = context.createUnmarshaller();
// Reading XML from the file and unmarshalling.
EntryListWrapper wrapper = (EntryListWrapper) um.unmarshal(file);
data.clear();
data.addAll(wrapper.getEntries());
// Save the file path to the registry.
setEntryFilePath(file);
}
I also have a wrapper:
import javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlElement;
import javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlRootElement;
import adress.view.EntryTableData;
import javafx.collections.ObservableList;
@XmlRootElement(name = "entries")
public class EntryListWrapper {
private ObservableList<EntryTableData> entries;
@XmlElement(name = "entry")
public ObservableList<EntryTableData> getEntries() {
return entries;
}
public void setEntries(ObservableList<EntryTableData> data) {
this.entries = data;
}
}
This is my stack trace:

I am not quite sure what the problem is, although I suspect that it may have something to do with the wrapper.
UPDATE: I fixed the error. It was on my own part in that it works when I replace the ObservableList in the wrapper with a List. It also happened that I needed to initialize a Date in my EntryTableData class.
