NetBeans IDE 200411020931 on java 1.5.0_01 I got the error while I was opening debugger views very fast. I am not able to reproduce.
Created attachment 18677 [details] Exception stack trace
Huh, what's that?!? The class name is corrupted: org/netbeans/spi/viewmoddl/UmknownTypeException I grep the debugger sources for 'Umknown' and did not get any hits. This looks like some very strange nonsense... The java.lang.NullPointerException seems to be caused by multiple calls to componentHidden() without preceding componentShowing(). - This is likely a bug of core. But the API does not talk about whether the methods are called in pairs. Can be easily fixed in our code.
The NPE is fixed in trunk: /cvs/debuggercore/src/org/netbeans/modules/debugger/ui/views/BreakpointsView.java,v <-- BreakpointsView.java new revision: 1.8; previous revision: 1.7 The NoClassDefFoundError does not make sense to me. Closing as fixed, if you can reproduce the NoClassDefFoundError with a clean build, please reopen.
