Michael Johns commented on MECLIPSE-423:
----------------------------------------
Barrie, I pulled down the source and had a look at the changes. Strictly
regarding the originally filed issue, you made the exact same change I did in
my locally patched version, so I feel confident that you've fixed the problem.
As for the bigger change of refactoring code up to a parent class... I think
that's a good change, if a bit outside the scope of this issue. I'll leave it
to others to judge whether or not it's a proper change. I'm really only
qualified to judge the fix for the issue as I filed it.

> 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.
