Description Claudia Irvine CLA 2017-07-17 11:20:19 EDT 
My Sirius version is actually 4.1.6.

I am throwing an NPE error on line 70 in RepresentationsFileSaxParser.analyze() when using a remote project.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Create a remote connection.
2. Create a project that uses that remote location, not the default workspace.
3. Convert to modeling project throws an error because IResource.getRawLocation() always returns null on a remote resource.

Hi, 
Can you precise what 1 and 2 means? 
I don't understand what "remote connection" refers to in the Eclipse + Sirius environment.

Regards,

We add Remote Systems Explorer to our product. So, the remote connection is a network resource.

When you add a new project, you are given the option to use the location of a resource in the remote connection.

In the attached screenshot, the RSE view is on the left and the New Project Wizard with the RSE location is on the right.

To have access to the RSE protocol for file localization, the feature "Remote System Explorer End-User Runtime" must be installed from Eclipse official repository.
