Hi,

Comment 5 Jaroslav Tulach 2012-08-10 14:44:57 UTC 
This is the code that is causing the exception. In my opinion you are running on some development build of JDK 7. Upgrade and re-evaluate.

        try {
            fileToPath = File.class.getMethod("toPath");
        } catch (NoSuchMethodException x) {
            // fine, JDK 6
        }
        if (fileToPath != null) {
            try {
                Class<?> path = Class.forName("java.nio.file.Path");
                pathToUri = path.getMethod("toUri");
                pathsGet = Class.forName("java.nio.file.Paths").getMethod("get", URI.class);
                pathToFile = path.getMethod("toFile");
            } catch (Exception x) {
                throw new ExceptionInInitializerError(x);
            }
        }
