Information in this document applies to any platform.
This problem can occur on any platform.

Symptoms

Duplicating and deleting the duplicate of a Function from Topology>Languages>SQL> results in corruption of the Master Repository.

For example, in Topology>Languages>SQL> duplicate the UCASE Function, name the duplicate, Apply and then try to delete this duplicate. The following error occurs: 

Error while deleting
.
java.lang.NullPointerException

ava)
at
com.sunopsis.dwg.dbobj.generated.GeneratedSnpLeTechno.getObjectFieldsFromDb(Ge
neratedSnpLeTechno.java)....


The same NullPointerException pops up if you now try to open up the original UCASE function (not the duplicate).

 And if you open up an Integration Interface in Designer, the following error occurs. Clicking on
OK or close the message box, the message pops up endlessly until you kill Designer and Topology.
