Description

The LinkBuilderImpl does not initialize its UriBuilder property with a non null value causing a NullPointerException if calling its `build` method after object construction.

We have a testcase, which just calls baseUri followed by build. Previously we used Jersey as JAX-RS implementation where this test works. Looking at the code, Jersey initialises its property by just constructing their implementation of `UriBuilder`.

I would assume, that changing the line

private UriBuilder ub;

to

private UriBuilder ub = new UriBuilderImpl();

would suffice.
