[vimplugin-devel] NullPointerException when opening a file with Vim in Eclipse

[Rashmi R. <ras...@gm...>]

Hello Everyone,

I'm trying out ViMPlugin for the first time. Thank you so much for this plugin.

I'm having a little problem. I'm getting a NullPointerException when I
try to open a file with ViM in Eclipse.

Here are the steps I took to open a file:

1) Opened the Resource or the Java perspective.
2) Right clicked on a .txt file in the Project Explorer and clicked on
"Open with ViM"

At this point I get a NullPointerException in Eclipse. Eclipse didn't
show a full stack trace when I clicked on the Details button.

My environment details:

1) ViM Plugin version 0.3.1

2) Eclipse Platform
Version: 3.3.0
Build id: M20070921-1145

3) Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_01-b06)

4) OS: Windows XP

I've followed the installation instructions mentioned here:
http://vimplugin.sourceforge.net/wiki/pmwiki.php?n=Community.Installation

I'm relatively new to Eclipse, but can find my way around it, however
I don't know how to get the full stack trace.

Please let me know how to get the stack trace in Eclipse , or if I'm
missing anything or doing anything incorrectly.

-Regards
Rashmi
