    Description

      Had a project with Coverity plugin installed and configured, successfully publishing results.

      Tried to make it conditional following instructions "importing existing publishers" https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Flexible+Publish+Plugin

      ```
      import static org.jenkins_ci.plugins.flexible_publish.JobUpdater.*

      def job = hudson.model.Hudson.instance.getItem('modulesJavaDatastore')
      list job
      movePublisher job,'Coverity'
      list job
      ```

      Maven build completed successfully, then follows following exception in console log.

      Strings match run condition: string 1=[clean], string 2=[clean]
      Run condition [Strings match] enabling perform for step [Coverity]

          Coverity plugin decides a temporary directory to use when that project is configured with Coverity publisher. This is performed in CoverityLauncherDecorator, CoverityTempDir.
          Used with Flexible Publisher, Coverity plugin fails to know Coverity publisher is configured in that project as it is wrapped by Flexible Publisher. This results no temporary directory is configured, and NPE happens as reported.

          I pass this issue to Coverity plugin as there is nothing Flexible Publisher can do.
          I think there are several ways Coverity plugin can do:

          • Does not support Fiexible Publish plugin.
          • Checks CovertyTempDir exists, and create if not exists.
          • Add a special handling for Flexib Publish plugin.

          Coverity will not support the "Flexible Publish Plugin"
