Hi all,
I have been trying today to get the Java library Wikidata-Toolkit
going, but about to give up... I keep running with both 0.3.0 and
current master into a NullPointerException... I thought it was how I
called the code, and did add several System.out calls, and in the end
just tried to get it running from the command line... I tried the
example from the website (though replaced the Dump examples, which I
don't see in master; btw, "mvn test" runs fine) using a pristine
master:
$ cd wdtk-examples/
$ mvn compile
$ mvn exec:java
-Dexec.mainClass="org.wikidata.wdtk.examples.EntityStatisticsProcessor"
In doing so, I get the same NPE:
********************************************************************
*** Wikidata Toolkit: EntityStatisticsProcessor
***
*** This program will download and process dumps from Wikidata.
*** It will print progress information and some simple statistics.
*** Results about property usage will be stored in a CSV file.
*** See source code for further details.

I tried finding what goes wrong, but cannot grasp all the magic that
is going on... the directory it reports was created, but is empty...
$ mvn --version
Apache Maven 3.0.5
Maven home: /usr/share/maven
Java version: 1.7.0_65, vendor: Oracle Corporation

Default locale: en_US, platform encoding: UTF-8
OS name: "linux", version: "3.16.0-4-686-pae", arch: "i386",

Can someone give me some pointers where and how it is testing of dump
files exist? Is this problem something platform dependent?
Thanks,
Egon
