20061017-0800 I'm using the Extended VS Presentation which stopped working in 20061017-0800. The stacktrace looks as this could be a problem in platform ui. http://www.eclipseplugincentral.com/Web_Links-index-req-viewlink-cid-586.html java.lang.NullPointerException at org.eclipse.ui.internal.presentations.PresentablePart.getMenu(PresentablePart.java:261) at de.loskutov.eclipseskins.ui.PartTitle.setBounds(PartTitle.java:364) at de.loskutov.eclipseskins.presentation.VSViewStackPresentation.layout(VSViewStackPresentation.java:69) at de.loskutov.eclipseskins.presentation.VSViewStackPresentation.childPropertyChanged(VSViewStackPresentation.java:222) at de.loskutov.eclipseskins.presentation.VSStackPresentation$2.propertyChanged(VSStackPresentation.java:233) at org.eclipse.ui.internal.presentations.PresentablePart.firePropertyChange(PresentablePart.java:112) at org.eclipse.ui.internal.presentations.PresentablePart$1.propertyChanged(PresentablePart.java:88) at org.eclipse.ui.internal.PartPane.firePropertyChange(PartPane.java:594) at org.eclipse.ui.internal.ViewPane.toolBarResized(ViewPane.java:161) at org.eclipse.ui.internal.ViewPane.access$0(ViewPane.java:149) at org.eclipse.ui.internal.ViewPane$ISVPropListener.propertyChange(ViewPane.java:79) at org.eclipse.jface.internal.provisional.action.ToolBarManager2.firePropertyChange(ToolBarManager2.java:144) at org.eclipse.jface.internal.provisional.action.ToolBarManager2.firePropertyChange(ToolBarManager2.java:157) at org.eclipse.jface.internal.provisional.action.ToolBarManager2.relayout(ToolBarManager2.java:167) at org.eclipse.jface.action.ToolBarManager.update(ToolBarManager.java:348) at org.eclipse.ui.internal.ViewPane.updateActionBars(ViewPane.java:443) at org.eclipse.ui.internal.ViewActionBars.updateActionBars(ViewActionBars.java:59)
Eric?
Martin, are you using the experimental 3.3 presentation or the default one?
An externally contributed presentation, the 'Extended VS Presentation', see link on comment 0.
Martin, can you fill me in with a bit more info. I've been making changes around this area (specifically handling Min/Max) but can't see how it could have affected the menu operations. Does the exception occur on startup or in response to some operation? If the latter...which operation?
After startup of an existing workpace configured with that presentation, views couldn't be opened. Did you try the presentation plugin?
Just tried it against both 20061010-0800 & 20061017-0800. I don't get an NPE. Are there custom views / plugins involved here? Does the same workspace open without issues in earlier builds?
It looks like the PartPane part==null ... the first thing we do is set the PartPane, and during a dispose we remove the property change listeners and then null out the part pane. Martin, do you have the full stack trace (and any other errors in you error log)? Also, this problem is workspace specific? If it is, could you please attach .metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.ui.workbench/workbench.xml for the workspace that it fails. PW
This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet. If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
