[tycho-user] NullPointerException org.codehaus.mojo:build-helper-maven-p

[Oliver Pfau <Oliver.Pfau@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I changed my build from Tycho 0.12.0 to 0.14.0 and defined all dependencies in a target definition file. The target definition is in an eclipse project and I added it in the project pom like this:

<build>
		<plugins>
			<plugin>
				<groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
				<artifactId>build-helper-maven-plugin</artifactId>
				<version>1.3</version>
				<executions>
					<execution>
						<id>attach-artifacts</id>
						<phase>package</phase>
						<goals>
							<goal>attach-artifact</goal>
						</goals>
						<configuration>
							<artifacts>
								<artifact>
									<file>targetdef_both.target</file>
									<type>target</type>
									<classifier>targetdef</classifier>
								</artifact>
							</artifacts>
						</configuration>
					</execution>
				</executions>
			</plugin>
		
		</plugins>
	</build>

And also in the top parent pom:

<target>
	<artifact>
		<groupId>groupid</groupId>
		<artifactId> groupid.targetdefinition</artifactId>
		<version>1.0.0</version>
		<classifier>targetdef</classifier>
	</artifact>
</target>

I got this exception:

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.codehaus.mojo:build-helper-maven-plugin:1.3:parse-version (versions) on project groupid.targetdefinition: Execution versions of goal org.codehaus.mojo:build-helper-maven-plugin:1.3:parse-version failed. NullPointerExcept

Any idea?
