[tycho-user] NPE in surefire with 0.22

["Keppler Michael (ETAS/ESW4)" <Michael.Keppler@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

 

I experience a NPE in (non Tycho) surefire code after the upgrade to 0.22. I just want to know if the Tycho developers are interested in that or if I should instead report that on the parent Maven Surefire project.

 

 

Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException

       at org.apache.maven.plugin.surefire.util.ScannerUtil.processIncludesExcludes(ScannerUtil.java:68)

       at org.apache.maven.plugin.surefire.util.DirectoryScanner.scan(DirectoryScanner.java:76)

       at org.eclipse.tycho.surefire.TestMojo.scanForTests(TestMojo.java:892)

       at org.eclipse.tycho.surefire.TestMojo.createSurefireProperties(TestMojo.java:847)

       at org.eclipse.tycho.surefire.TestMojo.createEclipseInstallation(TestMojo.java:740)

       at org.eclipse.tycho.surefire.TestMojo.execute(TestMojo.java:621)

       at org.apache.maven.plugin.DefaultBuildPluginManager.executeMojo(DefaultBuildPluginManager.java:133)

 

 

It is caused by an undefined property in the excludes configuration (this is the effective POM excerpt)

 

      <plugin>

        <groupId>org.eclipse.tycho</groupId>

        <artifactId>tycho-surefire-plugin</artifactId>

        <version>0.22.0</version>

            </goals>

            <configuration>

              <excludes>

                <exclude>${test.excludes}</exclude> <!-- this causes the NPE -->

              </excludes>

            </configuration>

          </execution>

        </executions>

      </plugin>

 

 

Ciao, Michael
