Build ID: M20080911-1700 Steps To Reproduce: 1. install Ganymede JEE SR1 2. install plugin for Visual Editor Note: the Eclipse VE wiki (http://wiki.eclipse.org/VE/Installing) suggests several alternative VE installations. We tried the following. All of them have the submitted bug. a) http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=131065&package_id=154855 b) http://www.ehecht.com/eclipse_ve/ve.html c) Update site: http://update.soyatec.org/Ganymede/ve/1.4 3. Create a Plugin-Project with a View 4. Open the View with Visual Editor then the error is: org.eclipse.swt.SWTException: Failed to execute runnable (java.lang.NullPointerException) at org.eclipse.swt.SWT.error(SWT.java:3777) at org.eclipse.swt.SWT.error(SWT.java:3695) at org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Synchronizer.runAsyncMessages(Synchronizer.java:136) at org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Display.runAsyncMessages(Display.java:3800) at org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Display.readAndDispatch(Display.java:3425) at org.eclipse.ui.internal.Workbench.runEventLoop(Workbench.java:2382) at org.eclipse.ui.internal.Workbench.runUI(Workbench.java:2346) at org.eclipse.ui.internal.Workbench.access$4(Workbench.java:2198) at org.eclipse.ui.internal.Workbench$5.run(Workbench.java:493) at org.eclipse.core.databinding.observable.Realm.runWithDefault(Realm.java:288) at org.eclipse.ui.internal.Workbench.createAndRunWorkbench(Workbench.java:488) at org.eclipse.ui.PlatformUI.createAndRunWorkbench(PlatformUI.java:149) at org.eclipse.ui.internal.ide.application.IDEApplication.start(IDEApplication.java:113) at org.eclipse.equinox.internal.app.EclipseAppHandle.run(EclipseAppHandle.java:193) at org.eclipse.core.runtime.internal.adaptor.EclipseAppLauncher.runApplication(EclipseAppLauncher.java:110) at org.eclipse.core.runtime.internal.adaptor.EclipseAppLauncher.start(EclipseAppLauncher.java:79) at org.eclipse.core.runtime.adaptor.EclipseStarter.run(EclipseStarter.java:386) at org.eclipse.core.runtime.adaptor.EclipseStarter.run(EclipseStarter.java:179) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:39) at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:25) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:597) at org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.Main.invokeFramework(Main.java:549) at org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.Main.basicRun(Main.java:504) at org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.Main.run(Main.java:1236) at org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.Main.main(Main.java:1212) Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException at org.eclipse.ve.internal.swt.ControlManager.refreshImage(ControlManager.java:934) at org.eclipse.ve.internal.rcp.WorkbenchPartProxyAdapter.refreshImage(WorkbenchPartProxyAdapter.java:493) at org.eclipse.ve.internal.cde.core.ImageFigureController.setImageNotifier(ImageFigureController.java:174) at org.eclipse.ve.internal.rcp.WorkbenchPartGraphicalEditPart.activate(WorkbenchPartGraphicalEditPart.java:170) at org.eclipse.gef.editparts.AbstractEditPart.activate(AbstractEditPart.java:152) at org.eclipse.gef.editparts.AbstractGraphicalEditPart.activate(AbstractGraphicalEditPart.java:193) at org.eclipse.ve.internal.java.core.CompositionComponentsGraphicalEditPart.activate(CompositionComponentsGraphicalEditPart.java:88) at org.eclipse.ve.internal.java.vce.SubclassCompositionComponentsGraphicalEditPart.activate(SubclassCompositionComponentsGraphicalEditPart.java:70) at org.eclipse.ve.internal.java.codegen.editorpart.JavaVisualEditorPart.setRootModel(JavaVisualEditorPart.java:505) at org.eclipse.ve.internal.java.codegen.editorpart.JavaVisualEditorPart.initializeViewers(JavaVisualEditorPart.java:1121) at org.eclipse.ve.internal.java.codegen.editorpart.JavaVisualEditorPart$Setup$2.run(JavaVisualEditorPart.java:2098) at org.eclipse.swt.widgets.RunnableLock.run(RunnableLock.java:35) at org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Synchronizer.runAsyncMessages(Synchronizer.java:133) ... 23 more More information:
