-------------------------
> NullPointerException when running Conditional step (single) with Run
> Condition set to "Current build status" in an empty project

> My project is a free-form project with several windows batch command steps
> followed by a conditional build step which copies a .zip file to a network
> drive. The conditional build step checks the current status of the build and,
> if successful, performs the copy (essentially conditional artifact deploy as
> a build step). The conditional step is set to FAIL the build if the
> conditional step fails (and it *does* fail).
> The best I can deduce from looking through the run-condition and jenkins code
> (for the first time) is that the result of the build is returning null, but I
> couldn't determine the cause.
> I whittled down my build to a very simple test case. No source control, all
> options unchecked. Step 1 is a windows batch call to "echo hello >
> _hello.txt" followed by a conditional step. The conditional step checks for a
> Successful build status, and then copies "echo world > world.txt". This code
> is never reached because the null pointer exception is thrown.
> The exception is also thrown if the only step in the project is the
> conditional check.
> I assume that the freestyle project returns by default a NULL for the status
> of the build, and that a successful windows batch file step also does not set
> the build status to a non-NULL value. setting "exit 1" in the batch file
> stops the build, so clearly the status is being set on failure and not on
> success. I tried returning "exit 0" from the batch command but still observed
> the NullPointerException
> Attached is the exception stack trace (also pasted below) and the config.xml
> file for the project.
