Hello all,

I am new to plug-in development in eclipse. So any help you provide will be really beneficial.

I had created a plug-in project through eclipse and everything was working fine. I then exported the plug-in as an archive file. I imported this archive file into a new work-space and tried running the plug-in application. But, when i do so i get the below Null-Pointer exception error. The same plug-in works fine in the earlier workspace, but in the new workspace it gives the error. Please let me know if anyone have encountered such an issue before. Thanks !!!

Regards,
Sid

What version of Oomph is in your target platform (i.e., what version of this Oomph bundle is included in your launch)? I expect this error doesn't actually affect your application at all though (and isn't even related to your application just as the warning from EGit isn't related to your application and is only there because you've included EGit in your launch), so if you ignore it, I expect your plug-in still functions as expected.
