Description Jaromir Uhrik 2001-11-09 16:34:40 UTC

[dev build #200111090100; last JDK1.4]
I used AutoUpdate to install the sysprops module and the 
java.lang.NullPointerException is written into the console. The ide.log will be 
attached.

Looks like a possible JDK bug to me. I don't think there is any excuse
for Hashtable.get to throw NPE even with a null key, but I will check.

Obsolete milestone, please reevaluate

Comment 4 Jesse Glick 2009-10-20 16:37:16 UTC

No longer even a call to getProperty from this method.
