The above line should be:
GenericValue ge = (GenericValue) result.get("userLogin");
The GenericEntity class models the entity definitions, while the
GenericValue class models the records in the entity.

The delegatorName variable is assigned in the web.xml
file for each webapp. Out of the box all of the
delegatorName variables = "default" which is calling
the definition from
/framework/entity/config/entityengine.xml <deleagotor
name="default" ...>
So in short, call the same method but set String
delegatorName = (String) "default";

Hey Raj,
Thanks for the getAllFields() call, that worked. It would be nice to
figure out what the delegator initialization issue was though.
