Description _ tboudreau 2004-07-31 23:13:14 UTC 
(May be something hosed in my user dir - same one in which I 
earlier encountered an exception when closing 42 projects, after 
which some became unclosable).

Looked at it, but I'm not sure I want to know what an 
"OpenProjectsTrampoline" is (though it's a neat visual image).

Comment 1 Jesse Glick 2004-08-01 02:17:05 UTC 
Need your whole log file. Your default lookup is apparently broken here.

BTW I will put assertions into
org.netbeans.modules.project.uiapi.Utilities to ensure that lookup
items are really found, and to fail quickly if not.
Comment 2 _ tboudreau 2004-08-01 03:52:14 UTC 
I'd provide it, but I deleted my userdir in order to get code-completion/refactoring 
working again...

Will see if I can reproduce it.

Comment 4 _ tboudreau 2004-08-02 12:02:51 UTC 
Easily reproduced after creating an installer on Milos' machine and running it.  May be 
related to the fact that when started from the desktop, the working dir is / ?
Comment 5 Jesse Glick 2004-08-02 12:43:19 UTC 
Yes, due to cwd being '/' and it being a Unix machine.

The NPE is a secondary effect; the true problem lies earlier in the
log file.
