Description jukefox CLA 2011-11-08 10:32:24 EST 
Build Identifier: M20110909-1335

After installation of the plugin

PTP Fortran Synchronization Support	5.0.2.201109141657	org.eclipse.ptp.rdt.sync.fortran.feature.group	Eclipse PTP

or

PTP Remote Synchronization Support	5.0.2.201109141657	org.eclipse.ptp.rdt.sync.feature.group	Eclipse PTP

and having a look at the Plugin-Properties there is a Synchronize-entry (I think it makes no sense that it is listed there and maybe this is already the bug).
After selecting that item you will get a
NullPointerException.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start Eclipse with PTP Fortran Synchronization Support or PTP Remote Synchronization Support installed.
2. Navigate to "Help" -> "About Eclipse SDK" -> "Installation Details"
3. Select an arbitrary entry within "Installed Software"-table.
4. Click "Properties".
5. Navigate to "Synchronize".

Confirmed. The "Synchronize" entry should not be there. For some reason, the page filter fails to exclude it.
Comment 4 John Eblen CLA 2011-11-09 10:38:02 EST 
Fixed in master and ptp_5_0. Use "enabledWhen" instead of "filter" in plugin.xml. (This is how CDT does it.)
