Hi,

I everytime get an Exception testing my plugin that says nothing.

"Unhandled exception caught in event loop
Reason:
java.lang.NullPointerException"

Is there a possibility to turn on a Dubugmode that provides more information
about this exception? Like a stacktrace. But with this real short
information i cant find the bug in my plugin.

Thanks for your help

Michael Bauer

PS: I tried the command line options -debug and -dev (without any urls or
someting like that) and it still doesnt work.

Look in the .log-file in the .metamodel directory of your
runtime-workbench-directory. There is the stack-trace for this error
available.
You can also use the debugging-perspective and set a breakpoint some lines
before the error.

Hi,

actually, the file is empty. It only contains

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<log>
</log>

Did I do something wrong?

Thanks

You can also launch your runtime workbench with the -consolelog option
to have the .log printed printed to the console in your development
workbench. I find this very helpful.
