Background:
I'm writing a task that will extract all deployment descriptors from an
EAR file. All of our EJBs have their deployment descriptors in
META-INF/ejb-jar.xml, so we need to extract those to ${dest.dir}/[EJB
NAME]/META-INF/ejb-jar.xml. Otherwise I'd just do several unzips with
patternsets & filesets.
The task reads in the application.xml to find all of the EJBs contained
within. The execute() function sends the file (application.xml) off to
a helper fuction, createDom(), who returns a Document object from that
file.
The error occurs in this chunk of code from createDom():
// Step 1: create a DocumentBuilderFactory and configure it
DocumentBuilderFactory dbf =
DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
// Step 2: create a DocumentBuilder that satisfies the
constraints
// specified by the DocumentBuilderFactory
DocumentBuilder db = null;
db.setEntityResolver(xmlCatalog);
Specifically, that last line is the one throwing the NPE.

Could you share some details of that NPE so we can track it down?
From what I recall, I don't think you even need to call setProject,
but
that probably wouldn't hurt.
