Plugin fails if maven version is < 3.1.0

[alex-semenyuk]

When I try to exclude some class from findbugs checking like this:

           <plugin>
                <groupId>com.qulice</groupId>
                <artifactId>qulice-maven-plugin</artifactId>
                <version>0.17</version>
                <configuration>
                    <license>file:${basedir}/LICENSE.txt</license>
                    <excludes>
                        <exclude>findbugs:com.test.Test</exclude>
                    </excludes>
                </configuration>
                <executions>
                    <execution>
                        <goals>
                            <goal>check</goal>
                        </goals>
                    </execution>
                </executions>
            </plugin>

I have the following exception:

Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException

When I remove this section than everything is ok.

           <executions>
               <execution>
                    <goals>
                        <goal>check</goal>
                    </goals>
                </execution>
           </executions>

Without <excludes> and with <executions> it works too.

I use maven version 3.0.5

@alex-semenyuk Is this really realted to qulice? I don't see any qulice class in the stack trace

[alex-semenyuk]

@krzyk suppose it's a maven problem which mentioned here #514 . I used maven with the version < 3.1.0. After upgrading version to the latest it works in all configuration which was mentioned above. Suppose it can be closed, but can you specify Maven's version requirements http://www.qulice.com/qulice-maven-plugin/usage.html and here https://github.com/teamed/qulice not only in contribution part?

[krzyk]

@alex-semenyuk OK, please either change the title/description of this issue or create a new one for the mvn version

[alex-semenyuk]

@krzyk Done. Does it look OK now?
