NullPointerException with ASMDetector

[evernat]

With the attached test project, I get the following NPE :

java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError

        ... 40 more

It is reproduced with openpojo 0.8.11 and 0.8.12.
I think it is caused by ff51b7d followed by a64e1c0.
And I don't think that asm version is really needed when asm is not found.

Thank you evernat for reporting this issue.

I ran into this same error. Debugging revealed that the ASMDetector.getVersion() could not instantiate org.objectweb.asm.ClassWriter. I added a the asm dependency to my project with a test scope. OpenPojo assumes this dependency as provided. This fixed this error for me.

        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.ow2.asm</groupId>
            <artifactId>asm</artifactId>
            <version>7.1</version>
            <scope>test</scope>
        </dependency>
