Error description

• Rational Programming Patterns - v9.1.2
  
  In some cases when using the "DUPLICATE" function from
  design explorer view on a batch program, the generation
  of the newly created program fails.
  An error box telling the generation process failed is displayed
  and a java exception is thrown :
  
  java.lang.NullPointerException
