Luke Stevens created SUREFIRE-864: ------------------------------------- Summary: NPE when unit test loads resources from JAR Key: SUREFIRE-864 URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/SUREFIRE-864 Project: Maven Surefire Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 2.12, 2.11, 2.10, 2.9 Environment: Windows 64-bit, Eclipse Maven plug-in Reporter: Luke Stevens Attachments: TestSurefire.zip
I have a unit test that reads resources from a JAR built by another project. This works totally fine when running JUnit within Eclipse. But when building under Maven, it hits an error: java.lang.NullPointerException at java.io.FilterInputStream.close(FilterInputStream.java:155) at sun.net.www.protocol.jar.JarURLConnection$JarURLInputStream.close(JarURLConnection.java:90) ... Suppressing this error (which occurs on close, after all) only leads to others. Some digging reveals that this is probably related to a longstanding classloader bug in the JVM: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3216780/ A very simple project is attached to demonstrate the problem. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
