Bug in ServerConstants cause NPE when geronimo-version.properties is missing
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: GERONIMO-2213
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-2213
Project: Geronimo
Issue Type: Bug
Security Level: public (Regular issues)
Affects Versions: 1.2
Reporter: Jason Dillon
Assigned To: Jason Dillon
Priority: Trivial
Fix For: 1.2
Looks like there is a minor bug in ServerConstants with this:
{code:java}
static {
Properties versionInfo = new Properties();
try {
versionInfo.load(ServerConstants.class.getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream("org/apache/geronimo/system/serverinfo/geronimo-version.properties"));
} catch (java.io.IOException e) {
throw new ExceptionInInitializerError(new Exception("Could not load
geronimo-version.properties", e));
}
{code}
The problem is that if the properties files is not found, then a NPE is thrown
which does not get caught by the IOException handler and then resulting
ExceptionInInitializerError error does not contain the detail as to why.
I'm seeing this when trying to build the m2 site, looks like clover is not
picking up the resources because they are not in the standard location where m2
suggests they be.
While it is a minor problem, we really should modules to use the standard
locations soonish.
I'm going to fix this with:
{code:java}
static {
Properties versionInfo = new Properties();
try {
InputStream input =
ServerConstants.class.getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream("org/apache/geronimo/system/serverinfo/geronimo-version.properties");
if (input == null) {
throw new Error("Missing geronimo-version.properties");
}
versionInfo.load(input);
}
catch (java.io.IOException e) {
throw new Error("Could not load geronimo-version.properties", e);
}
{code}
