java.lang.NullPointerException: The lib parameter cannot be null

reassigning to projects, however it is scala.project bug probably... (who's responsible for scala?)

Comment 3 Milos Kleint 2008-02-04 13:30:23 UTC

bug in scala support. Not sure what the component is, reassigning to 3rd party.

I seem to be seeing the same issue.  My environment is as follows:

Netbeans: Product Version: NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 200805221203)
Java: 1.6.0_10-beta; Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 11.0-b11
System: Windows XP version 5.1 running on x86; Cp1252; en_GB (nb)
Scala: 2.7.1.Final (zip archive)

I set up my environment variable as detailed in the wiki (http://wiki.netbeans.org/Scala)

When I create a new project > Scala > Scala Application I get the exact same error as above.

I see that the diagnosis was that the problem was with Scala itself.  I am new to scala but is there anything I can try
from the command line to see if this is the case?
