Description Damien Fournier CLA 2010-11-03 09:17:13 EDT 
The SCAResourceImpl class inside the org.eclipse.stp.sca.util package of the SCA model use the static method Platform.getLocation(). This method only works in an eclipse environment. Composite files should be loaded using an alternative method if the SCA model is not used by an eclipse editor.

for example:

public static void prepareCompositeFile(URI uri) {
  try {
    File file;
    try {
      IPath path = Platform.getLocation();
      file = new File(path.toString() + uri.toPlatformString(true));
     }
     // Load file from the system if Eclipse platform is not running or present
     catch (NoClassDefFoundError e) {
       file = new File(uri.toFileString());
     }
