I don't uderstand this report. I see a NullPointerException in looks. 
What does that "infinite loop" mean? Could you please explain this to me?
Comment 4 Jan Becicka 2003-08-18 14:54:13 UTC 
Infinite loop mean, that the IDE did a strange thing: it repeatedly
throw exceptions. This process was endless.
Comment 5 Ondrej Rypacek 2003-08-19 15:16:43 UTC 
This is a looks problem -- note the exception trace. The same
exception appears often in other occasions.

JarPackager probably catalyzes the problem as it sweeps over all
source/resouce/build target descriptors and tries to acquire looks for
them.
