Description

Aegis databinding throws a NullPointerException instead of reporting that it can not read the XML it receives.
I believe the correct, intended, behavior is that it would throw a DatabindingException stating the typeQName it could not unmarshall, or maybe it should even store the content of the element it could not parse to a Java bean in an XML document.

Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException
