Niall Pemberton resolved VALIDATOR-226.
---------------------------------------

       Resolution: Fixed
    Fix Version/s: 1.4
         Assignee: Niall Pemberton

Thanks for reporting this - I've fixed this in validator (now throws an IllegalArgumentException indicating that the InputStream is null).

I also created an issue for this against Commons Digester (DIGESTER-111)  - which also failed to check that the InputStream isn't null.

> Providing the constructor of ValidatorResources  with a null InputStream leads to a MalformedURLException,
> which leads the user (trying to find his error) in a complete wrong direction. Perhaps returning a NullPointerException or 
> an IllegalArgumentException seems to be a better understandable reaction.
