JavacFiler.getResource(SOURCE_PATH...) throws NPE if -sourcepath not there
Posted: Nov 21, 2007 9:22 PM

The following code in my annotation processor gets an NPE if I do *not* use any -sourcepath option while invoking javac:

FileObject fo = processingEnv.getFiler().getResource(StandardLocation.SOURCE_PATH, "", "META-INF/foo.xml");

The stack trace is:
java.lang.NullPointerException
at com.sun.tools.javac.util.DefaultFileManager.getFileForOutput(DefaultFileManager.java:974)
at com.sun.tools.javac.util.DefaultFileManager.getFileForOutput(DefaultFileManager.java:950)

...

Thanks,
Sahoo

I found another forum [1] where people seem to be answering questions about annotation processing. So, I am moving this discussion to there [2].
