Problem

Given the following kind of input XML with relationships between Organization and Address, where the second of three Organizations does not have a StreetName in its Address:

<Directory>
	<Organization>
		<ID>123</ID>
		<Name>ABC FastCo</Name>
		<Address>
			<StreetName>ABC FastCo Lane</StreetName>
		</Address>
	</Organization>
	<Organization>
		<ID>456</ID>
		<Name>XYZ Inc.</Name>
		<Address>
			<Area>XYZ Metro</Area>
		</Address>
	</Organization>
	<Organization>
		<ID>789</ID>
		<Name>MNO Ltd</Name>
		<Address>
			<StreetName>99 Maine St</StreetName>
		</Address>
	</Organization>
</Directory>

and the following kind of RML mapping involving a null-default conditional reference on the subjectMap of a joined parentTriplesMap, in order to avoid creating the related Address instance if certain elements (e.g. StreetName) are absent:

ex:Organizations a rr:TriplesMap;
    rml:logicalSource [
        rml:source "test.xml";
        rml:iterator "/Directory/Organization";
        rml:referenceFormulation ql:XPath
    ];
    rr:subjectMap [
        rr:template "http://data.example.org/resource/Organization_{ID}";
        rr:class org:Organization
    ];
    rr:predicateObjectMap [
        rr:predicate org:name;
        rr:objectMap
            [
                rml:reference "Name"
            ];
    ] ;
    rr:predicateObjectMap [
        rr:predicate org:address;
        rr:objectMap
            [
                rr:parentTriplesMap ex:Addresses ;
                rr:joinCondition [
                    rr:child "path(.)";
                    rr:parent "path(..)";
                ];
            ];
    ]
.

ex:Addresses a rr:TriplesMap;
    rml:logicalSource [
        rml:source "test.xml";
        rml:iterator "/Directory/Organization/Address";
        rml:referenceFormulation ql:XPath
    ];
    rr:subjectMap [
        # rr:template "http://data.example.org/resource/Address_{generate-id(.)}";
        rml:reference "if(exists(StreetName)) then 'http://data.example.org/resource/Address_' || generate-id(.) else null";
        rr:class org:Address
    ];
    rr:predicateObjectMap [
        rr:predicate org:streetName;
        rr:objectMap
            [
                rml:reference "StreetName"
            ];
    ] ;
.

Actual

Results in an unexpected null error:

14:49:50.108 [main] ERROR be.ugent.rml.cli.Main               .run(420) - Cannot invoke "java.util.Collection.toArray()" because "c" is null
14:49:50.110 [main] ERROR be.ugent.rml.cli.Main               .run(457) - Cannot invoke "java.util.Collection.toArray()" because "c" is null

        at be.ugent.rml.cli.Main.main(Main.java:49)

Expected

Should result in an output with just two Address instances related by the right Organization instances (and not the third one which fails the condition and therefore would have a null subjectMap leading to no instantiation):

ex:Address_d0e33 a org:Address;
  org:streetName "99 Maine St" .

ex:Address_d0e9 a org:Address;
  org:streetName "ABC FastCo Lane" .

ex:Organization_123 a org:Organization;
  org:address ex:Address_d0e9;
  org:name "ABC FastCo" .

ex:Organization_456 a org:Organization;
  org:name "XYZ Inc." . # no address relation, correct

ex:Organization_789 a org:Organization;
  org:address ex:Address_d0e33;
  org:name "MNO Ltd" .

Wrong

If one removes the joinCondition:

        rr:objectMap
            [
                rr:parentTriplesMap ex:Addresses ;
                # rr:joinCondition [
                #     rr:child "path(.)";
                #     rr:parent "path(..)";
                # ];
            ];

the transformation works, but of course results in erroneous output as the child instances are all related by all parents:

ex:Address_d0e33 a org:Address;
  org:streetName "99 Maine St" .

ex:Address_d0e9 a org:Address;
  org:streetName "ABC FastCo Lane" .

ex:Organization_123 a org:Organization;
  org:address ex:Address_d0e33, ex:Address_d0e9; # wrong
  org:name "ABC FastCo" .

ex:Organization_456 a org:Organization;
  org:address ex:Address_d0e33, ex:Address_d0e9; # wrong, should have nothing
  org:name "XYZ Inc." .

ex:Organization_789 a org:Organization;
  org:address ex:Address_d0e33, ex:Address_d0e9; # wrong
  org:name "MNO Ltd" .

Workaround

None. Use v6.2.2 or below to get the right result.
