public class NullPointerException
extends RuntimeException

Thrown when an application attempts to use null in a case where an object is required. These include:

Applications should throw instances of this class to indicate other illegal uses of the null object.

Direct instances of this exception class are not bound to any context and can be passed between contexts without any restrictions. Objects created and returned by the methods of this class are owned by the caller. In particular, a call to the Throwable.getMessage() returns a String instance bound to the owner context of the caller.

See Runtime Environment Specification for the Java Card Platform, Connected Edition, chapter 7 for details regarding transfer of ownership.
