Android 更新GAE中的实体时获取空指针异常

我是android和gae新手，在从android应用程序更新实体时遇到了一个问题，即在android的gae后端中有一个包含子对象列表的对象

情况是：

我已经在数据源中保存了父对象。然后我获取这个对象并添加新创建的子对象列表，然后触发更新。我的实体是：

父对象

public class ParentObject {
    @Id
    @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)
    private Key key;
    private String placeId;

    @OneToOne(cascade = CascadeType.ALL)    
    private List<ChildObject> childObjects;

    public Key getKey() {
        return key;
    }
    public void setKey(Key key) {
        this.key = key;
    }
    public String getPlaceId() {
        return placeId;
    }
    public void setPlaceId(String placeId) {
        this.placeId = placeId;
    }
    public List<ChildObject> getChildObject() {
        return childObjects;
    }
    public void setChildObject(List<ChildObject> childObjects) {
        this.childObjects = childObjects;
    }
}

更新异步任务代码是

    @Override
    protected ParentObject doInBackground(ParentObject... params) {
        ParentObject parentObj = params[0];

        Parentobjectendpoint.Builder builder = new Parentobjectendpoint.Builder(
                AndroidHttp.newCompatibleTransport(), new JacksonFactory(),
                null);

        builder = CloudEndpointUtils.updateBuilder(builder);

        Parentobjectendpoint endpoint = builder.build();

        ParentObject updatedObj;

        try {
            updatedObj = endpoint.updateParentObject(parentObj).execute();
        } catch (IOException e) {
            // TODO Auto-generated catch block
            e.printStackTrace();
            updatedObj = null;
        }

        return updatedObj;
    }

我得到的错误是

好的，我可以通过将ParentObject的主键更改为

@Id
@GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)
private Long id;

对类似问题的大量研究帮助我解决了这个问题

@Id
@GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)
private Long id;
