So far this is all I have. Will update with more details / simpler reproducable example

public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception { Cli.CliBuilder builder = Cli.builder("hio") .withDefaultCommand(Help.class) .withCommands(Help.class, InputBenchmarkCmd.class, TailerCmd.class, ConfOptionsCmd.class); Cli cli = builder.build(); cli.parse(args).run(); }

I ran into this as well. I wanted to show help when the parser thrown an exception, so I tried this:

    try
        {
        parser.parse(args).run();
        }
    catch (Exception e)
        {
        new Help().run();
        }

The result was:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException at io.airlift.airline.GlobalUsageSummary.usage(GlobalUsageSummary.java:63) at io.airlift.airline.GlobalUsageSummary.usage(GlobalUsageSummary.java:52) at io.airlift.airline.Help.help(Help.java:57) at io.airlift.airline.Help.help(Help.java:50) at io.airlift.airline.Help.run(Help.java:25) at org.musetest.commandline.Launcher.main(Launcher.java:34)
