NPE in Formatters
-----------------

                 Key: LOGMGR-32
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/LOGMGR-32
             Project: JBoss Log Manager
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: Public (Everyone can see)
    Affects Versions: 1.2.0.GA
            Reporter: Stuart Douglas
            Assignee: David Lloyd

In Formatters on line 452 there is a line:

exceptionClass.getProtectionDomain().getCodeSource().getLocation()

which can cause a NPE. This NPE then gets swallowed by:

catch (Throwable t) {
                        // ignore
                    }

This makes is extremely difficult to set a NPE breakpoint when debugging, as it keeps getting tripped by there spurious exceptions.
