Here is an overview of the issue:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
        Key: HB-313
    Summary: CharacterType throws NullpointerException on empty characters
       Type: Bug

     Status: Closed
   Priority: Major
 Resolution: REJECTED

    Project: Hibernate2
 Components: 
             core

   Assignee: 
   Reporter: Klaus Zimmermann

    Created: Fri, 5 Sep 2003 6:40 AM
    Updated: Fri, 5 Sep 2003 7:39 AM
Environment: mysql, mysql-connector-java-2.0.14

Description:
Some databases (i.e. MySql) seem to trim whitespaces under certain conditions. This leads to an empty String in CharacterType.get(ResultSet rs, String name) being provided by the ResultSet which passes the Null check and causes the NullPointer Exception in the str.charAt(0).

Patch attached.
