Geoffrey De Smet created DROOLS-2580: ---------------------------------------- Summary: KieScannerHolder throws an NullPointerException at normal drools startup that is later catched somewhere. This is a pita for debugging Key: DROOLS-2580 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/DROOLS-2580 Project: Drools Issue Type: Bug Components: core engine Reporter: Geoffrey De Smet Assignee: Mario Fusco Attachments: Selection_763.png This method: org.drools.compiler.kie.builder.impl.KieRepositoryImpl.KieScannerHolder#getInternalKieScanner throws an NPE when starting an example in optaplanner-examples. That NPE is then immediately caught by line 88 by the catch-all-exceptions, but meanwhile it has stopped my debugger NPE breakpoint, which is pita. *Exceptions should not be used for flow control.* -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.5.0#75005)
