Running processing-2.0 in NetBeans (odd behaviour or bug)

in Integration and Hardware • 11 months ago

Since the inclusion of the new icons in processing-2.0b5+ I started to experience the following error:-

Uncaught error fetching image:
java.lang.NullPointerException
at sun.awt.image.URLImageSource.getConnection(URLImageSource.java:99)
at sun.awt.image.URLImageSource.getDecoder(URLImageSource.java:113)
at sun.awt.image.InputStreamImageSource.doFetch(InputStreamImageSource.java:240)
at sun.awt.image.ImageFetcher.fetchloop(ImageFetcher.java:172)
at sun.awt.image.ImageFetcher.run(ImageFetcher.java:136)

I was on the point of filing a bug, when I decided to run a very simple sketch (notably the Array example as a java file), and it ran no problem, however if instead of running it in the <default package> ie none, I placed it in a test package as is my usual practice the error returned. So does this also happen in Eclipse (I expect so) and is this a bug? Any ideas...

I've been struggling the all day with exactly the same problem on Linux and Eclipse. Couldn't find a way around it yet.

The way round it is to not to create a package, ie work in default package. I think its got something to do with the way the icons are loaded ie using java.awt.Toolkit, I've seen reports on Stack Overflow that other loading strategies might avoid this issue. Anyway now that you've confirmed what I expected is that this also happens with Eclipse, I've filed a bug.

This has been fixed in 2.0b6
