Strange, does it happen regularily or was that just random NPE? It
seems like a JDK bug. Could you describe in steps what exactly you
did? Thanks.
Comment 3 bitwise 2003-09-30 11:11:27 UTC 
    It was just random. I can't reproduse it.
    The step I did was simple. 

1. I pressed "New" button in the project manager. 
2. I gave a name to new project and pressed "OK" in "Make a new
project" dialog.

Then the exception was thrown.
    Titles of buttons and dialogs may be different because I use
Japanese    version of the IDE. Anyway, sorry for my bad English. Thanks.
Comment 4 Vitezslav Stejskal 2003-09-30 13:54:06 UTC 
Thanks for the info. From the ide.log I see that you are using JDK
1.4.2_01-b06. That might be the cause - beta 6 version can have bugs.
Let's leave this report open for some time if there will be other
similar complaints. Otherwise I can't help much with that I think.
Comment 5 bitwise 2003-10-02 10:06:35 UTC 
    The NPE was thrown again. It seems that the NPE is thrown when I
create a new project right after the starting up of the IDE. I wonder
if the NPE depends on my environment. This is the 2nd time of the
throw. I will see this for a while.
    By the way, is the J2SDK 1.4.2_01-b06 beta version? I downloaded
it from a download site of regular version. I think "b" means "build,"
doesn't it?

Project opening is completely different under the new project system.

The exception posted here looks familiar; I think it was reported in
the JRE and fixed at some point. I think it had to do with components
overriding add/removeNotify without calling the super implementation.
