In the future, please post messages to eclipse.modeling.m2t - I've cross
posted this response.

Please submit a bugzilla for the NPE:

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/enter_bug.cgi?product=M2T& version=unspecified&component=Jet&rep_platform=PC&am p;op_sys=Windows%20XP&priority=P3&bug_severity=norma l&bug_status=NEW&bug_file_loc=http%3A%2F%2F&shor t_desc=&comment=&commentprivacy=0&keywords=& dependson=&blocked=&maketemplate=Remember%20values%2 0as%20bookmarkable%20template&form_name=enter_bug&as signed_to=m2t.jet-inbox%40eclipse.org&qa_contact=

As for the supported axes, here is the current list:

attribute:: and the @ abbreviation
child:: and its abbreviated form
descendantOrSelf:: and the // abbreviation
parent:: and its .. abbreviation
self:: and its . abbreviation

If you need more, please submit an bugzilla enhancement.

Thanks for you interest,

Hi Paul,

I submitted the bug. In regards to the descendantOrSelf (//) I tried it
out with the "Create more -- better -- code in Eclipse with JET"
tutorial
( http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/opensource/library/os- ecl-jet/).

When I run the email.jet example (Example:Write code that does stuff)
everything works okay and I get the Chris.txt and Nick.txt. But if I
change the main.jet from:

<c:iterate select="/app/email" var="currEmail" >
<ws:file template="templates/email.jet"
path=" {$org.eclipse.jet.resource.project.name}/{$currEmail/@to}.tx t " />
</c:iterate>

to:

<c:iterate select="//email" var="currEmail" >
<ws:file template="templates/email.jet"
path=" {$org.eclipse.jet.resource.project.name}/{$currEmail/@to}.tx t " />
</c:iterate>

once again I get the NullPointerException:

templates/main.jet(1,1): <c:iterate var="currEmail" select="//email">
Error: Error executing tag handler: java.lang.NullPointerException
Errors occurred during execution

Any ideas? Have I done something wrong because I assume it would have
been discovered earlier or is it in fact a bug?

Cheers,
Toby

Toby:

Of course, it works on my machine :-( I have tested in in Eclipse 3.2.2/EMF
2.2.2/JET 0.7.2, and with somewhat stale versions of Eclipse 3.3 and EMF
2.3.

Also, take a look in the Error log - you should find a stack trace.

I'll continue to investigate.

Paul:

The setup causing problems was Eclipse 3.2.1/EMF 2.2.2/JET 0.7.1 running
on Ubuntu Linux.

I have since changed versions to Eclipse 3.2.2/EMF 2.2.2/JET 0.7.2 and
everything is working as it should.

Thanks for your help.
