[news.eclipse.tools] problems with validateClasspath

["Stephen Willoughby" <stephen.willoughby@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm trying to programatically add entries to the Java Build Path for java
projects in my plugin.  However I want to make sure that it's all still
'legal' after my additions. (Ideally I'd like to check what I'm adding is ok
before I add it, but I've not had any luck there).  The problem I'm getting
is that when I run the code below I get:

"Unhandled exception caught in event loop.
Reason:
org/eclipse/jdt/core/JavaModelException"

try
{
            JavaProject javaProject = (JavaProject)project;

            IJavaModelStatus status = JavaConventions.validateClasspath(
javaProject,javaProject.getRawClasspath(),
javaProject.getOutputLocation() );
            System.out.println( status.getMessage() );
}
catch (JavaModelException e)
{
            e.printStackTrace();
}
catch (Throwable e)
{
            e.printStackTrace();
}


it's definately this code causing the exception becuase if  I comment it out
then I no longer get the error.   Any ideas?
