After I corrected some classpath variables (see my bug report before) in the Window->Preferences->Java->Classpath Variables I'm not able to start a test using "Run". Also I'm not able to configure any starts in the Run->Run... dialog. In the Eclipse log file following exception is reported: !SESSION Jul 18, 2002 11:46:22.731 --------------------------------------------- java.version=1.4.0 java.vendor=Sun Microsystems Inc.

The runtime path belongs to JDT/Debug.

Looking at the code, it looks like you have added a jar to the classpath in a project that is not located under the workspace root? (i.e. an external project?). Is this correct?
Darin (S): I notice that we now have a null pointer check in out latest code, but does this work for jars in external projects? case ARCHIVE : path = root.getAttribute("externalArchive"); //$NON-NLS-1$ if (isEmpty(path)) { // internal path = root.getAttribute("internalArchive"); //$NON-NLS-1$ if (isEmpty(path)) { abort(LaunchingMessages.getString ("RuntimeClasspathEntry.Unable_to_recover_runtime_class_path_entry_- _missing_archive_path_5"), null); //$NON-NLS-1$ } else { IResource res = ResourcesPlugin.getWorkspace().getRoot ().findMember(new Path(path)); if (res == null) { abort(LaunchingMessages.getString ("RuntimeClasspathEntry.Internal_archive_no_longer_exists___1") + path, null); //$NON-NLS-1$ } setClasspathEntry(JavaCore.newLibraryEntry (res.getFullPath(), sourcePath, rootPath)); } } else { // external setClasspathEntry(JavaCore.newLibraryEntry(new Path(path), sourcePath, rootPath)); } break;
I believe this to be a duplicate of bug 21170. I could not cause any problems using external projects with internal jars on a non default classpath of a launch configuration. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 21170 ***
