Description

Providing the constructor of ValidatorResources with a null InputStream leads to a MalformedURLException,
which leads the user (trying to find his error) in a complete wrong direction. Perhaps returning a NullPointerException or
an IllegalArgumentException seems to be a better understandable reaction.
