[ http://nagoya.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVEMIND-78?page=comments#action_55873 ] Paul Russell commented on HIVEMIND-78: --------------------------------------
Unfortunately(!), I'm using Maven, so I'm not sure I can run Ant in forked mode :( As a temporary 'work around', I point a remote debugger at the build process and try and determine what's done wrong by looking at the message keys. I'll check-out hivemind and attach a patch. > Certain classloaders (AntClassLoader for example) cause NullPointerException > in impl.MessageFormatter > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVEMIND-78 > URL: http://nagoya.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVEMIND-78 > Project: HiveMind > Type: Bug > Components: framework > Versions: 1.0, 1.1 > Environment: MacOSX. Running unit tests of code running within hivemind > using JUnit inside Ant inside Maven. > Reporter: Paul Russell > > MessageFormat uses java.lang.Class.getPackage() to obtain the name of the > package for the 'reference class' in order to choose an appropriate resource > bundle. Unfortunately, java.lang.Class.getPackage() does not guarantee to > return a Package object. > It may return 'null' if (a) the reference class is loaded by the primordial > classloader, or (b) if the classloader didn't create a package object and > associated it with the class. > I am seeing this problem while running unit tests of my application within > Maven. Example stacktrace follows: > java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError > at > org.apache.hivemind.impl.RegistryImpl.getServicePoint(RegistryImpl.java:142) > at > org.apache.hivemind.impl.RegistryImpl.getService(RegistryImpl.java:149) > at org.apache.hivemind.impl.RegistryImpl.startup(RegistryImpl.java:321) > at > org.apache.hivemind.impl.RegistryBuilder.constructRegistry(RegistryBuilder.java:417) > ... lots more > Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException > at > org.apache.hivemind.impl.MessageFormatter.<init>(MessageFormatter.java:49) > at > org.apache.hivemind.impl.MessageFormatter.<init>(MessageFormatter.java:44) > at org.apache.hivemind.impl.ImplMessages.<clinit>(ImplMessages.java:45) > ... 59 more > The only safe way that I can see to achieve the same effect as > Class.getPackage().getName() is to do something like: > String lReferenceClassName = referenceClass.getName(); > String lPackageName = > lReferenceClassName.substring(0,lReferenceClassName.lastIndexOf('.')); > ... probably as a private function within MessageFormat itself. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://nagoya.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - If you want more information on JIRA, or have a bug to report see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
