When deleting elements from my model, I get the following error msg. Is this a known error?

Phil,

What's the code in
pld.presentation.PldEditor$5$1.run(PldEditor.java:814) doing?

Hi Ed,

you mean Codeline 814?

	if (propertySheetPage != null && !propertySheetPage.getControl().isDisposed()) {
814		propertySheetPage.refresh();
	}

Phil,

So so that's well guarded against null and disposed widgets and looks
like what EMF would generated but the generated editor doesn't used a
tabbed property sheet, so you'll need to look at what's going on in that
code.

Hi Ed,

I used the debugger and only while deleting, it runs into the catch block in the runAsyncMessages of Sychronizer class:

boolean runAsyncMessages (boolean all) {
	boolean run = false;
	do {
		RunnableLock lock = removeFirst ();
		if (lock == null) return run;
		run = true;
		synchronized (lock) {
			syncThread = lock.thread;
			try {
				lock.run ();
			} catch (Throwable t) {
				lock.throwable = t;
				SWT.error (SWT.ERROR_FAILED_EXEC, t);
			} finally {
				syncThread = null;
				lock.notifyAll ();
			}
		}
	} while (all);
	return run;
}

This gave me the error msg, but I've not that much knowledge about the background technique to avoid this error msg and deleting elements still works, so I won't investigte further..

Phil,

So that should let you see a stack trace and probably something is
logging it and that should let you see the cause and fix it.

Unfortunately I'm only able to get the stack trace I posted above, which don't help me much...

Phil,

You have "t" at that point, so you can see what the exception is, and in
particular what type it is, so you can set an exception breakpoint for
that and see the next time exactly where and why it's being thrown.
Also, it appears that SWT.error wraps and throw an exception so there
must be some further processing of that error which you can follow with
the debugger.

Thx Ed for your hints. It's an NPE and setting the exception breakpoint gave me this:

index.php/fa/16431/0/

Regarding tracking the further processing of the error; it goes next to PartRenderingEgine.java to the method Object run(final MApplicationElement uiRoot, final IEclipseContext runContext), where it enter the catch(Exception ex) statement and afterwards stay at the while loop.

while (((testShell != null && !testShell.isDisposed()) || (theApp != null && someAreVisible(theApp.getChildren()))) && !display.isDisposed()) {
	try {
	   if (!display.readAndDispatch()) {
		runContext.processWaiting();
		if (spinOnce)
			return;
		advisor.eventLoopIdle(display);
	}
	} catch (ThreadDeath th) {
		throw th;
	} catch (Exception ex) {
		handle(ex, advisor);
	} catch (Error err) {
	        handle(err, advisor);
	}
}

So, it's hard for me to see any reasons for the NPE..especially while deleting works at all..

Cheers,
Phil

Phil,

It doesn't look like the exception you show in the image is really the
one from TabbedPropertySheetPage from previous stack traces you show. I
assume you have looked at the error log because I imagine the exception
you were trying to track down originally is being looked with a full
stack trace. Have you looked closely at the source code for
TabbedPropertySheetPage to see where the error there is?
