David Blevins commented on XBEAN-92:
------------------------------------

Andreas, if you can come up with a quick patch I can get it in.  We will be cutting an xbean-finder 3.6 release in the next day or two (beginning of next week at the latest) and then an OpenEJB 3.1.2 right after.

> With IBM JDK 5, when we try to get the system property java.endorsed.dirs, it returns null.  This is a critical issue as it prevents OpenEjb from starting 
> In UrlSet, the following method will lead to a NullPointerException:
>     public UrlSet excludeJavaEndorsedDirs() throws MalformedURLException {
>         return excludePaths(System.getProperty("java.endorsed.dirs"));
>     }
> This is because the excludePaths() method assumes that the pathString argument is always non-null.
>    public UrlSet excludePaths(String pathString) throws MalformedURLException {
>         String[] paths = pathString.split(File.pathSeparator);
>         UrlSet urlSet = this;
>         for (String path : paths) {
>             File file = new File(path);
>             urlSet = urlSet.exclude(file);
>         }
>         return urlSet;
>     }
