I am getting a NullPointerException and cant find the reason why its
doing... looks to me my typecasting is fine...
Please see error line

public void validate(Object domainObject, String action,
MessageAccumulator errors) throws ApplicationException
{
Facility facility = (Facility) domainObject;

String name = facility.getName();
String typeIdentifier =
facility.getFacilityType().getTypeIdentifier(); (error line) 
int nameSize = name.length();
FacilityType facilityType =
facilityTypeDAO.findByTypeIdentifier(typeIdentifier);
String facilityTypeId = facilityType.getFacilityTypeId();
:
:
:
}

Facility.java -> getFacilityType(),
FacilityType.java -> getTypeIdentifier()

Any help would be great...Thanks all

Either facility or facility.getFacilityType() is null. Either use a
debugger or println to determine which. Type casting is irrelevant.
