      In doxygen-plugin-0.6 the error looks like this:

      Publishing Doxygen HTML results.
FATAL: error
java.lang.NullPointerException

      HTML_OUTPUT is optional parameter for Doxygen. If it is omitted default location "OUTPUT_DIRECTORY/html" is used for html output. getDoxygenGeneratedDir method in DoxygenDirectoryParser.java can almost handle this but it ends up in returning null anyway, which will then cause NPE in DoxygenDirectoryParser.java:313

      The attached patch probably does what the original author intended.
