-----------------------------------
Summary: Stop abusing IllegalArgumentException in case of null
Key: MNG-5649
URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-5649
Project: Maven 2 & 3
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 3.2.1
Reporter: Michael Osipov
In several spots of Maven Core, IAE is thrown where an argument is null. This
should be turned into {{NullPointerException}} since JDK adheres to is and the
[description|http://docs.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/lang/NullPointerException.html]
of this exception indicates that and Effective Java does that too.
I possible fix version could next minor: 3.3. Is no one is opposed it could
even be 3.2.2.
