ConnectionDragCreationTool and eraseSourceFeedback() [message #187776]

Hi,

I'm using a ConnectionDragCreationTool and everything works fine up to
eraseCreationFeedback(). The removeFeedback(connectionFeedback) method
gives me an 'Unhandled event loop exception' because of a
java.lang.NullPointerException.

FWIW, I'm using a ScrollingGraphicalViewer and a
ScalableFreeformRootEditPart. My top-level figure is a FreeformLayer and
its LayerManager is a FreeformLayout. Also, I changed the feedback layer
to SCALED_FEEDBACK_LAYER and both the layer and the connectionFeedback are
non-null.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Matt

Pratik,

Yes, I'm using 3.1. I'm running this as an Eclipse application (RCP), so
nothing shows up on the error log. I've tried debugging as an
application, but execution doesn't halt at breakpoints or exceptions.

I'm using a GraphicalEditorWithPalette instead of a
GraphicalEditorWithFlyoutPalette. Could that be part of the problem?

Thanks.

Ahem, I got the stack trace and it looks like I have something wrong with
my custom ConnectionAnchor and its removeAnchorListener() method. Sorry
'bout that.
