NullPointerException when existing Manifest.MF file has no Class-Path element
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MECLIPSE-423
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MECLIPSE-423
Project: Maven 2.x Eclipse Plugin
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 2.5
Reporter: Michael Johns
Priority: Minor
A NullPointerException arises when running the rad goal against a project
containing a manifest that has no Class-Path element. The exception is caught
and the only error on the screen is "No <project-path>\META-INF\MANIFEST.MF
file found". The problem is in the RadManifestWriter.orderClasspath() method.
It needs to check newValue for null before trying to split it up.
Here's the manifest I had that caused the problem:
{code}
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Build-Jdk: 1.4.2
Built-By: Michael Johns
Created-By: Apache Maven
{code}
Notice that it has no Class-Path element.
