Re: [ovirt-devel] How to debug NullPointerException for project restapi-def inition of version 3.6.4.1?

Hi, I am building ovirt-engine 3.6.4.1 and failed with NullPointerException. I build for cross compile with commands: tmp_repo=/buildarea3/kkang/builds/Mar31-ovrit-engine/bitbake_build/tmp/work/corei7-64-wrs-linux/ovirt-engine/3.6.4.1-r0/repo export MAVEN_OPTS="-Dmaven.repo.local=$tmp_repo" make EXTRA_BUILD_FLAGS="-s /buildarea3/kkang/builds/Mar31-ovrit-engine/bitbake_build/tmp/work/corei7-64-wrs-linux/ovirt-engine/3.6.4.1-r0/settings.xml --debug --offline" -j1 BUILD_GWT=1 BUILD_LOCALES=0 BUILD_UT=1 BUILD_VALIDATION=0 JAVA_DIR=/usr/share/ovirt-engine/java LOCALSTATE_DIR=/var MAVENPOM_DIR=/usr/share/ovirt-engine/maven-poms PREFIX=/usr SYSCONF_DIR=/etc PKG_SYSCONF_DIR=/etc/ovirt-engine PKG_DOC_DIR=/usr/doc/ovirt-engine PKG_EAR_DIR=/usr/share/ovirt-engine/engine.ear PKG_PKI_DIR=/etc/pki/ovirt-engine PKG_JBOSS_MODULES=/usr/share/ovirt-engine/modules PKG_CACHE_DIR=/var/cache/ovirt-engine PKG_LOG_DIR=/var/log/ovirt-engine PKG_TMP_DIR=/var/tmp/ovirt-engine PKG_STATE_DIR=/var/lib/ovirt-engine PKG_USER=ovirt PKG_GROUP=ovirt all The error messages show: [INFO] oVirt Engine API Definition .......................

Which javax.xml.bind.JAXB is used? I searched the ovirt engine repo but didn't find it either.
