Description Milan Kubec 2005-08-05 14:21:37 UTC 
[200508041800, JDK 1.5.0_04]

I was editing java source file and used not yet declared variable. After
finishing editing I got NullPointerException. Cursor was on the line with error.
The exception was poping up periodically after closing the exc dialog every 2
sec. After I moved cursor on different line no exceptions were thrown, but only
until I moved the cursor on the line with error.

java.lang.NullPointerException

Please attach your source file. I cannot reproduce it.
Comment 3 Milan Kubec 2005-08-05 15:11:49 UTC 
Cannot reproduce it either now on the same source file.
Comment 4 Milan Kubec 2005-08-12 13:58:04 UTC 
Happening again on different source file now it's method call with not existing
argument. If cursor is on the line exceptions keep poping up. The file is form file.

IDE :(

Comment 7 Martin Krauskopf 2005-08-14 22:11:42 UTC 
Also happening to me on linux. IMHO must be fixed for 4.2 (P3 -> P2). At least
get rid of NPE should be easy enough, huh? ;)
Comment 8 Pavel Flaska 2005-08-16 09:13:09 UTC 
Fixed.
