Benson Margulies commented on MJAVADOC-342: ------------------------------------------- THis is more likely to get fixed with test case(s) attached. > An incomplete fix for the NPE bugs in AbstractJavadocMojo.java > -------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MJAVADOC-342 > URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MJAVADOC-342 > Project: Maven 2.x Javadoc Plugin > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Guangtai Liang > Priority: Critical > > The fix revision 554202 was aimed to remove an NPE bug on the returned value > of "getJavadocDirectory()" in the method "getSourcePaths " of the file > "/maven/plugins/trunk/maven-javadoc-plugin/src/main/java/org/apache/maven/plugin/javadoc/AbstractJavadocMojo.java" > , but it is incomplete. > Since the returned value "getJavadocDirectory()" could be null during the > runtime execution, its value should also be null-checked before being > dereferenced in other methods. > The buggy code locations the same fix needs to be applied at are as bellows: > Line 2401 of the method "copyJavadocResources"; > Line 1505 of the method "getSourcePaths". -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
