We cannot call methods directly from the Interactions pane: We have to use the hj or run commands, otherwise the class loader isn't properly set up. We should at least come up with a better error message than throwing an exception:
Welcome to DrJava. Working directory is /Users/mgricken/bin/hj.release/examples
> new FibFuture().fib(10)
java.lang.NullPointerException
at hj.lang.Runtime.here(Runtime.java:317)
at hj.lang.Object.<init>(Object.java:44)
at FibFuture.<init>(FibFuture.hj)
