Problems creating a new GraphicalEditor [message #202362]

Hi,

I am trying to create a new Graphical editor. However, I keep getting
a null pointer exception when I display the editor. Looking through the
stacktrace brings me to the line of code:

// Test getTitleToolTip
Assert.isNotNull(part.getTitleToolTip());

However, I am calling the following in the constructor for my Editor:

this.setTitleToolTip("nada");

Any Ideas what could be going on. Anyone experience a similar problem?

Thanks,
Rob

Also,

I forgot to mention that I am trying to open the editor
programmatically with a call to:

getActivePage().openEditor(new FlowChartEditorInput(),FlowchartEditor.ID);

if that helps clarify what I am doing more explicitly.

Thanks,
Rob

Can you provide the stack trace?
