Description Holger Staudacher CLA 2010-09-16 05:51:56 EDT 
The scout tooling crashes with a NPE if no scout client is available. Happens when you select a service on a server only project.
Comment 1 Arthur vD CLA 2010-09-16 07:07:34 EDT 
Thank you for your bug report. Using the Eclipse Scout version available from http://scout.bsiag.com/ (3.5.2.201003171911) I can see uncaught NullPointerExceptions in the Error Log in listeners:

org.eclipse.scout.sdk.ui.wizard.services.ProcessServiceNewWizard$P_LocationPropertyListener.propertyChange(ProcessServiceNewWizard.java:152)

org.eclipse.scout.sdk.ui.wizard.services.LookupServiceNewWizard$P_LocationPropertyListener.propertyChange(LookupServiceNewWizard.java:161)

All the tooling functionality seems to be unaffected though. Or did you have any problems afterwards?

Hi Arthur,
every time the error occurs an error dialog shows up. This really disrupts the workflow.

BTW: The bug happened when I was working with Andi on his machine. He will be able to reproduce it.

Regards Holger

Interesting. I've only seen the NPEs in the Error Console, no dialogs.
