Re: [JPP-Devel] A question about null values...

Re: [JPP-Devel] A question about null values...
Craig, Thanks for your help. This tells me that the problem could possibly be with other statements in the method throwing the null pointer exception, not just the HashMap. I'll have to do some more digging to see what is going on. You help is appreciated. The Sunburned Surveyor On 5/16/07, A.

Re: [JPP-Devel] A question about null values...
SS, When you get an exception while running in Eclipse, you should be able to click on the line in the Console and have it take you to the exact line that caused the error. Even if you are not running in Eclipse, the line number should be available in the Details, and Navigate - Go to Line should take you there. regards, Larry On 5/16/07, Sunburned Surveyor [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Craig, Thanks for your help.
