Description

Hi everybody,

I just updated to Geronimo Eclipse Plugin v2.1.7, and now I get a NullpointerException whenever I try to publish to the server:

java.lang.NullPointerException
at java.util.concurrent.ConcurrentHashMap.put(Unknown Source)
at org.apache.geronimo.st.core.internal.DependencyHelper.getEnvironment(DependencyHelper.java:442)

The project I used for testing is the one described here:
https://cwiki.apache.org/GMOxDOC21/5-minute-tutorial-on-enterprise-application-development-with-eclipse-and-geronimo.html

The exception disappears when switching back to 2.1.6 of the eclipse plugin

I'm using Eclipse 3.6.1

Any ideas?
