Adding resources section to POM without directory element causes 
NullPointerException
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

         Key: MNG-1147
         URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-1147
     Project: Maven 2
        Type: Bug
  Components: maven-resources-plugin  
    Versions: 2.0-beta-3    
 Reporter: David Jackman
    Priority: Minor


Add a resources section to a POM without a directory element (in my case I did 
have a filtering element, but that doesn't seem to matter).  Do a build (at 
least to the resources:resources goal).  A NullPointerException is thrown:
java.lang.NullPointerException

Obviously, this is an error situation, but instead of throwing a runtime 
exception, the resources plugin should report an error that a directory was not 
provided.
