I don't fully understand why the null exception appears so I've added an assert next to the fix, so those with asserts on will see another exception here until I understand the problem :)

Integrated into 'main-silver', will be available in build *201404080419* on http://bits.netbeans.org/dev/nightly/ (upload may still be in progress)

Comment 4 Mattdje 2014-07-08 20:38:09 UTC 
Still occurs with the latest nightly build (NetBeans IDE Build 201407080001) on Windows 8.

When trying to execute my NBP application, I get the following NPE:

java.lang.NullPointerException
	at java.io.File.<init>(File.java:360)
	at org.netbeans.modules.maven.apisupport.CoSApplicationLateBoundChecker.checkRunConfig(CoSApplicationLateBoundChecker.java:133)
	at org.netbeans.modules.maven.execute.MavenCommandLineExecutor.run(MavenCommandLineExecutor.java:162)
[catch] at org.netbeans.core.execution.RunClassThread.run(RunClassThread.java:153)

Notes: building the application works fine

Product Version         = NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 201407080001) (#d5f5bf8ec3be)
Operating System        = Windows 8 version 6.2 running on amd64
