If a file has no known content type (by file extension), the WPE will open to an exception shown below. Internally no TagRegistryIdentifier is located. Steps: 1) Create DWP 2) Create JSP file... (it can be any kind of a file for that matter) 3) Rename to have .random file extension 4) Open in WPE Result: NPE and editor with stack trace java.lang.NullPointerException at org.eclipse.jst.pagedesigner.editors.palette.impl.PaletteHelper.getOrCreateTag libPaletteDrawer(PaletteHelper.java:130) at org.eclipse.jst.pagedesigner.editors.palette.impl.PaletteItemManager.registerH TMLCategory(PaletteItemManager.java:343) at org.eclipse.jst.pagedesigner.editors.palette.impl.PaletteItemManager.initTagRe gistry(PaletteItemManager.java:307) at org.eclipse.jst.pagedesigner.editors.palette.impl.PaletteItemManager.init(Pale tteItemManager.java:272) at org.eclipse.jst.pagedesigner.editors.palette.impl.PaletteItemManager.reset(Pal etteItemManager.java:302) at oracle.eclipse.tools.webtier.ui.internal.palette.model.taglibs.TagLibPaletteCo ntributor.getContributions(TagLibPaletteContributor.java:74) at oracle.eclipse.tools.webtier.ui.palette.internal.OEPEPaletteRoot.addDrawers(OE PEPaletteRoot.java:138) at oracle.eclipse.tools.webtier.ui.palette.internal.OEPEPaletteRoot.resetPaletteR oot(OEPEPaletteRoot.java:110) at oracle.eclipse.tools.webtier.ui.palette.internal.OEPEPaletteRoot.<init>(OEPEPa letteRoot.java:51) at oracle.eclipse.tools.webtier.ui.palette.internal.PaletteFactory.createPaletteR oot(PaletteFactory.java:61) at org.eclipse.jst.pagedesigner.editors.SimpleGraphicalEditor.getPaletteRoot(Simp leGraphicalEditor.java:479) at org.eclipse.gef.ui.parts.GraphicalEditorWithFlyoutPalette.setEditDomain(Graphi calEditorWithFlyoutPalette.java:145) at org.eclipse.jst.pagedesigner.editors.SimpleGraphicalEditor.<init>(SimpleGraphi calEditor.java:164) at org.eclipse.jst.pagedesigner.editors.HTMLEditor.sash_createAndAddDesignSourceP age(HTMLEditor.java:259) at org.eclipse.jst.pagedesigner.editors.HTMLEditor.createPages(HTMLEditor.java:43 9)
Checked into HEAD (3.2.2 and 3.3). When a file is opened without a content type, a dialog will prompt the user to set it. If the user chooses not to, the WPE will still open to an error. If the ocntent type is set, the WPE will open correctly... except that the palette will not be initialized. This will require the user to close and reopen the editor. Bug 323545 has been created to track.

Manual * Give a brief technical overview. Who has reviewed this fix? See comment 1 * What is the risk associated with this fix? none-low
This failed to make this week's build because of spurious junit failures in local testing.
