Are you running under Eclipse? This method is only valid when running as
an Eclipse plugin.

Yes, I'm running this method in a plugin, I created a view, which should
access the WorkingCopyManager.

JavaPlugin.getDefault().getWorkingCopyManager();

also doesn't work

I don't know why you are getting an NPE, but you shouldn't be using
JavaPlugin. That is an internal class. You should be using:

JavaUI.getWorkingCopyManager()

This is the API way of getting it.

However, this begs the question because under the covers this method
does JavaPlugin.getDefault().getWorkingCopyManager().

What line exactly gives the NPE? What does the stack trace say. If it
says that JavaPlugin.getDefault() return null, then this shouldn't
happen because that can only happen if the jdt ui plugin did not
initialize correctly.

So what is in your .log file, what stack trace?

What version of Eclipse and JDT are you using because my Eclipse/JDT is
I20060131 and JavaUI line 616 is no where near the
getWorkingCopyManager class.

But looking at the code I'm willing to bet it is because
JavaPlugin.getDefault() is returning null.

There is something funny about your setup. Can up bring up a straight
java editor? Does that work in your setup?

Does your plugin.xml or manifest.mf declare to depend on
org.eclipse.jdt.ui? Are there any other messages in .log?
