Hi all,

After upgrading to the latest headless Buckminster I'm getting errors
such as

ERROR: An internal error occurred during: "Refreshing external folders".
java.lang.NullPointerException
at
org.eclipse.jdt.internal.core.ExternalFoldersManager$Refresh Job.run(ExternalFoldersManager.java:387)
at org.eclipse.core.internal.jobs.Worker.run(Worker.java:54)

when building in Hudson. This looks identical to
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=321358
However, this bug is about Eclipse 3.7 so I'm wondering why I'm getting
the error with 3.6? Also Buckminster the build inside the Eclipse IDE
(3.6.0) still works fine.

Cheers,

Thorsten

More info on this: I have an older headless Buckminster that is working
and the important difference seems to be

org.eclipse.jdt.core_3.6.0.v_A58.jar vs.
org.eclipse.jdt.core_3.6.1.v_A66_R36x.jar

I have the same errors from time to time but I think the builds are
still ok. I didn't investigate further because I have no external
folders (I think). What are external folders anyway?

Best regards,
Peter

External folders are used if you let Hudson checkout the sources and let
Buckminster import these projects via an appropriate CQUERY.
Unfortunately, in my case these error messages also prevent the
workspace from being built, so it's a more serious problem.
I worked around the problem by first installing org.eclipse.jdt.core in
version 3.6.0 into headless Buckminster and after that
org.eclipse.buckminster.pde.feature. This works because the latter
depends on a version range of jdt. The faulty 3.6.1-version is installed
because the Buckminster-US ships it.

I had the same issue too after the most recent Eclipse update. I started refreshing my projects one by one until I found the one which was raising the NPE, Closing and reopening the proj resolved the problem in my case.
