Build 040505 I invoked New -> Java Class action on the package node in explorer and got an attached exception.
Created attachment 14737 [details] Exception
Seems the issue is not the exception itself. The issue is that on some machines the old "New" menu (instead of "New file..." menu item) appears. Then it of course does not work. The problem is we cannot reproduce it on our machines. We will need to check this with the buildsystem folks and investigate it further. I am lowering the priority since there is a workaround for this task, which is to use File->New file... item in main menu.
