...at line 493 (more or less). It's logging in and finding the server/project/view & folder just fine, but populating those properties brings things to a halt. Something internal to StarTeam is throwing the NPE, I think... not sure what. I saw the earlier postings on another StarTeam taskdef written by Christian Nichols but I hope to avoid using that since it shells out to the StarTeam command line interface. Sure would be nice to just do this programmatically via the SDK. I'll continue troubleshooting this myself in the meantime; just wanted to see if anyone else has been this behaviour.
