The debugger and the Development Mode console seem to be oblivious whenever my GWT code trips a NullPointerException. There's no error output at all, and the breakpoint on "Exceptions caught and uncaught" do nothing. However, my code stops working (naturally).
Looking at the Firebug console, I do see "java.lang.NullPointerException" in red with no other information. The only way to reliably hunt down NPEs is to GWT-compile in Detailed mode and then use Firebug *without* connecting to the GWT server. The javascript console output is verbose enough for me to identify the offending code and fix the NPEs. Is anyone else experiencing the same problem? I'm not sure when this behavior started, but I don't think it's always been that way. I'm pretty sure the NPE-hiding behavior started when I upgraded to GWT 2.0 release (previously I was working with trunk). 2.0.1 and 2.0.2 exhibit the same behavior.
