Description Peter Burka

Build F2

I just got the following error on my console. Note that no error was logged in 
the .log file.

I had an editor open in the Debug perspective. I believe that the error 
occurred when I switched to another editor on the same file in the Java 
perspective in another window.

java.lang.NullPointerException

Without line numbers, it is hard to determine where the bug is. The trace shows 
that we were trying to get hover text for a variable in a java editor 
associated with a debug session.

This error happens fairly frequently. I've got two of them in my terminal 
right now.

The stack traces look pretty much like the one below.

This looks like another instance of the NPE reported in Bug 19433. In Bug 
19433, I recommend a post-2.0 review of all callers of requestVM().

Pre-2.0, we should at least add defense against the NPEs reported in this 
report and Bug 19433.

Where were you running the target VM? Desktop machine, embedded device, etc.?

Comment 5 Peter Burka

This error occurred when I was running a runtime Eclipse workbench (WSADIE) in 
Eclipse. Target VM is J9 2.0 BFU beta.
