Stacktrace

If I use the cloneSnippet method in a model processor I get a NPE because EPlaceholderResolver is null at this point in time.

Example:

    @Execute
    public void notWorkingexecute(EPartService partService, EModelService modelService, MApplication app) {

        // looking for the main window
        MWindow window = app.getChildren().get(0);

        // Cloning the snippet
        modelService.cloneSnippet(app, "test", window);

        // clonedPart.setParent((MElementContainer<MUIElement>) target);
    }

With I do the same with EMF functionality it works

     @Execute
        public
        void workingExecute(EPartService partService, EModelService modelService, MApplication app) {

        // cloning the snippet manualy using EMF
        MUIElement sourceSnippet = modelService.findSnippet(app, "com.intel.test.application.snippet.part.toput");
        MUIElement clonedPart = (MUIElement) EcoreUtil.copy((EObject) sourceSnippet);
        MUIElement target = modelService.find("test", app);

        clonedPart.setParent((MElementContainer<MUIElement>) target);
    }
