    Description

      When @SupportedSourceVersion is not used, if user overrides the init method and does not assign to processingEnv, a null pointer exception results when processor is run. The error message is kind of minimal

      error: Exception thrown while constructing Processor object: java.lang.NullPointerExceptioN

      and give little indication of what's wrong. Maybe more of the stack track may help(?).
