[ptp-dev] Null pointer exception in ToolLaunchManager.launch with PTP 5.

[Dave Wootton <dwootton@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm getting the following null pointer
exception when I try to run a HPC Toolkit profiling run using the profile
configuration dialog

The first time I click Profile
in the profile configuration dialog I get a null pointer exception in TAUAnalysisTab.performApply
as noted in my prior email and the profile configuration dialog does not
close. I click Profile again and get the null pointer exception below.
This null pointer exception is because pproc is null. pproc is set  afew
lines above, where the configuration prameter passed to the method looks
odd because the fName variable is set to the name of the project but the
fContainer variable is null.

If I try to run the profile configuration
dialog again, I get the null pointer exception in TAUAnalysisTab.performApply
again,but when I click Profile again the application runs, although the
classes I have registered to the extension org.eclipse.ptp.etfw.dataManagers
don't seem to be invoked.

Subsequent attempts to run the
profile configuration dialog allternate between the null pointer exception
and the behavior in the preceding paragraph.
