NPE during serializing [message #890410]

Good day,

I have a plugin that containes 3 Xtext grammars and lets the user enter text in an EmbeddedEditor. The problem that occures on some machines now, is that for two of the three grammars, serialization of the entered text will result in a NullPointerException.

The stacktrace is the following:

!ENTRY org.eclipselabs.recommenders.codesearch.rcp 4 0 2012-06-22 09:44:31.831
!MESSAGE Error while searching. Query was: * * (java.lang.String, java.util.List)
!STACK 0
java.lang.NullPointerException

at org.eclipse.core.internal.jobs.Worker.run(Worker.java:54)

The weird thing is that it doesn't happen on every machine so I guess, but please correct me if I'm wrong, the problem is dependant on the installed Xtext version but it's the exact same update site that my plug-in is installed from that is what confuses me.

I found this bug: bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=380406 and it contains the same stacktrace and says that the problem might be grammars that have multiple entry points. The first, always working grammar, is an expression syntax which I guess has multiple entry points but again, this is the one working 100% of the time. The other two, non working, grammars have multiple entry points too. If that would solve the problem, is there a way I can define a rule as the sole entry point for a grammar?

Are there any other things I could check?

Thanks in advance,
Tobias

FYI: My runtime has Xtext installed in version 2.2.1
The runtime where the problem occurs has Xtext installed in version 2.3

Is there something obvious that I'm missing or did I give too little information?

It is now happening on our build server too while testing:

Looks like you try to serialize a resource that does not have a URI.
That's pretty much of an violated invariant.

1) Does your build server run Eclipse? The
PreferenceStoreWhitespaceInformationProvider should only be bound in the
UI module, i.e. for the Equinox run scenario.

2) Code recommenders seems to kick in for a resource that has no URI
set. Maybe you have to set a URI in in the resources you create in your
tests.

Tobias - were you able to resolve this. I am finding the same NullPointerException when serializing, but only occasionally. I'm currently working with Xtext 2.0.1.
