> The error happens when you try to load a file using the file manager in Jena 2.10.1, for example
> {code}
> model = FileManager.get().loadModel("http://example.org","http://example.org","RDF/XML");
> {code}
> The reason is incorrect initialization of variables in the OWL class. In the following code:
> {code}
>     public class OWL {
>         private static Model m_model = ModelFactory.createDefaultModel();
>         
>         public static final String NS = "http://www.w3.org/2002/07/owl#";
>         
>         public static String getURI() {return NS;}
>     
>     ...    
>         public static final Property sameAs = m_model.createProperty( "http://www.w3.org/2002/07/owl#sameAs" );
>     ...
> {code}
> a call to OWL.sameAs will result in a NPE because m_model is null. I guess that if you start with OWL.getURI(), then m_model will be evaluated first and there will be no error, which is why this never occurred before.
> I think that a solution would be to make m_model final as well.
