This occurs when the preferences are changed and the view
is not open. I will check for this in the next release. In the
meantime, the work around is to open the view.

For me, i just opened the Antview preferences, did no
change, and i had this exception, and the preferences dialog
would not close.

Release 2.2.9 fixes this problem.
