Strange WindowBuilder Error! (Internal Error) [message #1614935] Fri, 13 February 2015 15:46 Go to next message

Can anyone help me shed some light on why I am seeing this error? I have used Eclipse WindowBuilder to create a GUI for a Java project. If I start eclipse, and load my project, WindowBuilder works fine and I can see the GUI being displayed, I can add/remove components, and so on. However if I switch to my source code and back to the Designer, I get the error shown in the attached screenshot.

I have attached the Stack Trace for you to look at.

If I click the "Go to Problem" button, it takes me to the source code with the line below highlighted:

private void initialize() 
	{
		frmEcg = new JFrame(); <------------- This line is causing the error
		frmEcg.setTitle("ECG");
		frmEcg.setBounds(100, 100, 1239, 904);
		frmEcg.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);]


I have to restart eclipse to go back to my GUI. It is frustrating! Any ideas?

Looks like a know bug in JDK 1.8...

java.lang.NullPointerException
at java.beans.MethodRef.get(Unknown Source)
at java.beans.PropertyDescriptor.getWriteMethod(Unknown Source)

There is a workaround in the latest WB build.

Unfortunately, I got the same error since friday and I don't know why. I see no error in the code. The module doesn't complain my code, but the WindowsBuilder Code.

Internal Error

WindowBuilder encountered unexpected internal error.

This could be caused by a WindowBuilder bug or by a misconfiguration issue, conflict, partial update, etc.

One added information. I have already installed the update in eclipse over the function "Help -> Check for updates".

Not sure what you mean when you say you got the "same error".

It looks completely unrelated to the original exception posted to start this thread.

If you have a new issue, you should create a new bug report and submit it to Bugzilla with a self-contained test case that will reproduce the problem.

I thought, it is the same or a similar error.

If you think, I should open a new topic, then I will do this.

The two stack traces have nothing in common, so they are unrelated. The original error referenced in this thread is caused by a know bug in JDK 1.8.
