Comment 1 Rodrigo Peretti CLA 2002-06-04 16:45:30 EDT 
Could you test against build F2? Thanks.
Comment 2 Dejan Glozic CLA 2002-06-04 18:51:12 EDT 
Could reproduce - F3 candidate.
Comment 3 Sridhar Bidigalu CLA 2002-06-05 17:04:27 EDT 
Yes! fails in F2 too.
Comment 4 Dejan Glozic CLA 2002-06-06 16:59:48 EDT 
The problem happens when no valid folder or project is selected in the 
workspace as a target container. Added target container validation. Editing 
when done checkbox state is not connected with the problem.

This is a general bug, not just HP-UX.
Comment 5 Sridhar Bidigalu CLA 2002-06-14 11:34:35 EDT 
Again, it fails to create EPS under F3 build...

I had given the following values to various attributes.

Plug-in ID: com.example.xyz
Extension Point Id: parsers
Extension Point Name: Sample Parsers
Extension Point Schema: schema/parsers.exsd

"Next" & "Finish" button are still sensitive, unable to create one.
Comment 6 Dejan Glozic CLA 2002-06-14 12:55:13 EDT 
Have you selected a valid container first (a project or a folder)?
Comment 7 Sridhar Bidigalu CLA 2002-06-14 15:30:30 EDT 
Yep! it works fine on both solaris and HP-UX by selecting a
valid project or folder.
Comment 8 Dejan Glozic CLA 2002-06-14 15:33:57 EDT 
So it works when selecting a valid container AND does not bomb with an NPE when 
not? I guess the bug was fixed properly then.

Reopened for verification. Got confirmed, case closed.
