When selecting New->Java Class.... from the context menu in the package browser, I get this. Very annoying, and a real show stopper. java.lang.NullPointerException at org.netbeans.modules.java.project.NewJavaFileWizardIterator.current(NewJavaFileWizardIterator.java:195) at org.openide.loaders.TemplateWizard$Brigde2Iterator.current(TemplateWizard.java:924) at org.openide.loaders.TemplateWizardIterImpl.current(TemplateWizardIterImpl.java:103) at org.openide.WizardDescriptor.updateState(WizardDescriptor.java:514) at org.openide.loaders.TemplateWizard.updateState(TemplateWizard.java:686) at org.netbeans.modules.project.ui.NewFileWizard.updateState(NewFileWizard.java:96) at org.openide.WizardDescriptor$Listener.stateChanged(WizardDescriptor.java:1255) at org.openide.util.WeakListenerImpl$Change.stateChanged(WeakListenerImpl.java:251) at org.openide.loaders.TemplateWizardIterImpl.fireStateChanged(TemplateWizardIterImpl.java:210) at org.openide.loaders.TemplateWizardIterImpl.setIterator(TemplateWizardIterImpl.java:79) at org.openide.loaders.TemplateWizard.setTemplateImpl(TemplateWizard.java:181) at org.openide.loaders.TemplateWizard.setTemplate(TemplateWizard.java:199) at org.openide.loaders.TemplateWizard.instantiateImpl(TemplateWizard.java:413) at org.openide.loaders.TemplateWizard.instantiate(TemplateWizard.java:363) at org.netbeans.modules.project.ui.actions.NewFile.doPerform(NewFile.java:98) at org.netbeans.modules.project.ui.actions.NewFile.access$100(NewFile.java:48) at org.netbeans.modules.project.ui.actions.NewFile$PopupMenuListener.actionPerformed(NewFile.java:279) at javax.swing.AbstractButton.fireActionPerformed(AbstractButton.java:1849) at javax.swing.AbstractButton$Handler.actionPerformed(AbstractButton.java:2169) at javax.swing.DefaultButtonModel.fireActionPerformed(DefaultButtonModel.java:420) at javax.swing.DefaultButtonModel.setPressed(DefaultButtonModel.java:258) at javax.swing.AbstractButton.doClick(AbstractButton.java:302) at javax.swing.plaf.basic.BasicMenuItemUI.doClick(BasicMenuItemUI.java:1000) at javax.swing.plaf.basic.BasicMenuItemUI$Handler.mouseReleased(BasicMenuItemUI.java:1041) at java.awt.Component.processMouseEvent(Component.java:5488) at javax.swing.JComponent.processMouseEvent(JComponent.java:3093) at java.awt.Component.processEvent(Component.java:5253) at java.awt.Container.processEvent(Container.java:1966) at java.awt.Component.dispatchEventImpl(Component.java:3955) at java.awt.Container.dispatchEventImpl(Container.java:2024) at java.awt.Component.dispatchEvent(Component.java:3803) at java.awt.LightweightDispatcher.retargetMouseEvent(Container.java:4212) at java.awt.LightweightDispatcher.processMouseEvent(Container.java:3892) at java.awt.LightweightDispatcher.dispatchEvent(Container.java:3822) at java.awt.Container.dispatchEventImpl(Container.java:2010) at java.awt.Window.dispatchEventImpl(Window.java:1766) at java.awt.Component.dispatchEvent(Component.java:3803) [catch] at java.awt.EventQueue.dispatchEvent(EventQueue.java:463) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpOneEventForHierarchy(EventDispatchThread.java:234) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEventsForHierarchy(EventDispatchThread.java:163) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEvents(EventDispatchThread.java:157) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEvents(EventDispatchThread.java:149) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.run(EventDispatchThread.java:110)
Cannot reproduce in 040722; missing steps to reproduce from scratch (incl. a build number). Possible workarounds: - use Ctrl-N, maybe that works better than the context menu for you - use the template "Empty File" and just name it *.java
