Description

This happens with only a few jar files, but I get this error when throwing them through the dts-generator:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException
	at com.telerik.dts.DtsApi.getInterfaces(DtsApi.java:352)
	at com.telerik.dts.DtsApi.generateDtsContent(DtsApi.java:75)
	at com.telerik.dts.Generator.generateDts(Generator.java:37)
	at com.telerik.dts.Generator.start(Generator.java:29)
	at com.telerik.Main.main(Main.java:21)

I've found that adding a check if clazz1 != null allows the generator to work.
JavaClass clazz1 = ClassRepo.findClass(intface);
The fix source:
