             Summary: Nullpointer exception in run mojo
                 Key: MTOMCAT-168
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MTOMCAT-168
             Project: Apache Tomcat Maven Plugin
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: tomcat7
    Affects Versions: 2.0-beta-1
         Environment: windows mingw
            Reporter: Jiri Peinlich
            Assignee: Olivier Lamy (*$^¨%`£)


when using enpty aditionalClasspathDir tag in the the plugin settings and 
running the mvn tomcat7:run mojo I got the following nullpointer exception.  I 
am currently learning how the whole plugin works. I got the initial plugin 
configuration from here:
http://tomcat.apache.org/maven-plugin-2/run-mojo-features.html

I removed parts that are not applicable for my project but i kept the empty 
additionalClasspathDir as in the example:
<additionalClasspathDirs>
                    <additionalClasspathDir></additionalClasspathDir>
</additionalClasspathDirs>

When removing this section i did not get the exception anymore

Null Pointer exception:
