Description skesper 2004-10-27 12:23:12 UTC 
[ BUILD # : 200410261800 ]
[ JDK VERSION : J2SE 1.5.0 ]

Created a new class. Defined an annotation type

public @interface Copyright
{
    String value;
}

and used the 

@copyright("Message") 

as annotation for the class. 

Got the following NPE:

Annotation: Exception occurred in Request Processor
java.lang.NullPointerException

Comment 1 Marek Grummich 2004-10-27 12:53:22 UTC 
I am able to reproduce it and seems to me it worked in the last. 
Priority P3->P2!
Thanks!
Comment 2 Martin Matula 2004-10-27 13:02:30 UTC 
Dane, please look at it.
Comment 3 Pavel Flaska 2004-10-28 11:35:42 UTC 
Fixed in trunk. There was problem when source contained syntax errors
and there were features/classes with annotation. The same problem was
visible when using 1.4 platform and having 1.5 sources. All these
cases should work correctly now.
