Description Steven Horsman 2011-04-05 11:57:59 EDT

Build Identifier: Eclipse SDK Version: 3.6.1 Build id: M20100909-0800

I created a custom perspective and then deleted it resulting in the following NPE

java.lang.NullPointerException

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Java Perspective
2. Window > Save Perspective As ... : enter "Java2"
 You should now only have this perspective open
3. Delete the perspective
- Window > Preferences
- go to Workbench, Perspectives
- select "Java2" from list
- click Delete button
- click OK
On clicking OK the NPE happens resulting in the stack trace above showing in the error log
