Exception in with @Rest when using @Get without value

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I created the following @Rest interface :

@Rest
public interface ElectionResource {
    @Get
    Election getElection();
}

@Get must have a value attribute defined, so I expect Eclipse to give me a 
compile error on @Get. Eclipse did that, but it also added an unexpected 
compile error on @Rest, with the following content :

Unexpected error. Please report an issue on AndroidAnnotations, with the 
following content: java.lang.NullPointerException

I fix the bug and push it on 134_ExceptionInRest branch.
The exception raised on all REST methods annotation (@Get, @Post ...)
