I'm getting this error in Eclipse intermittently.

"An error has occurred. See error log for more details."

java.lang.NullPointerException.

This is in Eclipse IDE, not from running my code

the error log says the following:

null
org.eclipse.jface

Problems occurred when invoking code from plug-in: "org.eclipse.jface".

Really? Nobody knows what causes this?

Well, it looks like some action is trying to update based on the selection and some project in your workspace is causing a problem during that update. But I've never seen this and I don't know what would cause this. Perhaps refreshing the projects in the workspace will help.
