Hi all,

i am having a problem with my GMF application, yet as the Problem is an
Exception in a draw2d class, i hope that this is the right place to ask
for help:

The problem is there for a long time (different versions of Galileo),
but my configuration right now is as follows:
Eclipse Galileo in the Cocoa 64 Bit Version on Mac OS X 10.5.7 with GEF
All-in-One SDK 3.5.0.v20090422..., GMF SDK 2.2.0.v20090114...

My application is running fine, but my conole log is stuffed full with
the following NPE:


java.lang.NullPointerException

The reason being that the "timer" in ToolTipHelper is null when
hookShellListeners() calls timer.cancel().

There is no "real" problem (the application does not seem to mind), but
as the console is spammed with this NPE, it is a real pain to look for
other Exceptions while developing (not to mention the how cluttered the
log would be if i released my application with this problem still
present...).
What bugs me most is that my collegues using Windows machines never see
that problem.
Has anyone seen this problem before or may direct me to the newsgroup i
am most likely to get help?

gr.

Markus

Hi,

Yes, it's been reported by other person as well and the setup of the same
Cocoa 64 bit. Did you see this happening with any other GEF milestone
build? What about GEF 3.4.2?
We're mainly working on WinXP 32 bit, so we've never seen this issue. Did
you see it happening on Linux?
Please raise a bug. I have a feeling the problem is in SWT, since Draw2D
hasn't really changed from 3.4.2 to 3.5.

Cheers,
Alex

Hi,

thanks for your responses. I am positive that i indeed have found bug
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=278593 in another
circumstance (GMF). I can confirm that the Bug is not present in GEF
3.4.2. I do not have a Linux machine at hand so no idea there...
As the Bug contains a patch that seems to resolve the bug (although i
think it does only "cure" the symptom, not the problem) i will wait for
that fix to be integrated into Draw2d. I also had the feeling that the
underlying problem may be with SWT, unfortunately i do not have the time
to investigate this further...

Thanks for pointing me to the bug.

Markus
