Description Alex Beardsley

2012-06-25 13:17:28 EDT

Build Identifier: 201205071000

I'm using Spring Roo 1.2.1.

java.lang.NullPointerException
at org.aspectj.ajdt.internal.core.builder.AsmElementFormatter.genLabelAndKind(AsmElementFormatter.java:205)

Compile error: NullPointerException thrown: null

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
There are a lot of moving parts and so this situation is likely not easy to reproduce on other machines; the environment is complex.

1. Delete and put back a squiggly bracket which starts the class definition.
2. Save (with auto-build turned off).
3. Command-B to build.
