--------------------------------------------

             Summary: checkstyle report throws NPE
                 Key: MCHECKSTYLE-287
                 URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MCHECKSTYLE-287
             Project: Maven Checkstyle Plugin
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 2.14, 2.13
            Reporter: Thomas Scheffler


I don't know what triggers this bug. Somehow org.apache.maven.plugin.checkstyle.AbstractCheckstyleReport.collectArtifacts(String) produces a List which contains the null object. And therefor an exception is thrown here (2.14):

Looking at the code, you see a null check is done for the list, bit not for elements of that list:
{noformat}
        // MCHECKSTYLE-225: load licenses from additional artifacts, not from classpath
        if ( additionalArtifacts != null )
        {
            for ( Artifact licenseArtifact : additionalArtifacts )
            {
                try
                {
                    resourceManager.addSearchPath( "jar", "jar:" + licenseArtifact.getFile().toURI().toURL() );
                }
                catch ( MalformedURLException e )
                {
                    // noop
                }
            }
        }
