Hello,

I'm maintaining an old Eclipse E4/RCP project and I've been running into trouble since installing the latest version of Eclipse for RCP and RAP developers (Version: 2018-12 (4.10.0)).

I get the following stack trace when adding an InputPart in the application:

!ENTRY org.eclipse.jface 4 0 2019-01-31 11:40:49.044

(the error log has no additional information)

Relevant code:
	private MInputPart createProfileEditor(ProfileInfo profileInfo) {

		String editorInputUri = UUID.randomUUID().toString();

		MInputPart editor = MBasicFactory.INSTANCE.createInputPart();

		editor.getTags().add(EPartService.REMOVE_ON_HIDE_TAG);

		editor.setInputURI(editorInputUri);
		editor.setLabel(profileInfo.getShortName());
		editor.setTooltip(profileInfo.getToolTip());

		editor.setContributionURI(Uris.forClass(ProfileEditorPart.class));
		editor.setCloseable(true);
		editor.setIconURI(Images.getUrl(Images.ICON_PROFILE));

		editorPartStack.getChildren().add(editor); // exception happens here
		profileEditors.add(editor);
		profileInfos.put(editorInputUri, profileInfo);

		return editor;
	}


I have verified that there are no null values in the affected line. I get "source code not found" for the top bunch of entries in the stack trace, so I'm having a hard time tracing the source of the issue.
I have seen that MInputPart is deprecated. Could this be related to my issue?

I'm afraid I'm completely stumped and would be grateful for any hints on how to fix this.

Has that MPartStack actually been added to the model -- that is, does it have a parent?

You should have source available if you install the Eclipse SDK (org.eclipse.sdk) feature.
