I am just using NatTable and I like it so far. I am working through the tutorials and I get an null pointer exception when I use a different configuration (autoconfigure = false).

I even used the default table (example) the reproduce the problem:

natTable = new NatTable(parent, false);
natTable.addConfiguration(new HeaderMenuConfiguration(natTable));
natTable.configure();

When I use that the content in the body is not being displayed. If I click on a table cell in the body I get the following NullPointerException:

The parent is an org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Composite.
I am building an Eclipse E4 RCP application.

Does anybody know what is wrong?
Can it have something to do with Eclipse E4 RCP?

Hi,

if you create a NatTable instance with autoconfigure = false you have to ensure that the base configuration for rendering the NatTable is added manually (maybe customized).

A simple way to solve your issue is to add the default configuration like NatTable does on autoconfigure.

natTable = new NatTable(parent, false);
natTable.addConfiguration(new DefaultNatTableStyleConfiguration());
natTable.addConfiguration(new HeaderMenuConfiguration(natTable));
natTable.configure();

Greez,
Dirk
