[jboss-user] [JBoss jBPM] - NullPointerException while trying to add ActionHandler

[dveermanster]

Hey,

I am trying work with GPD 3.0.8 on Eclipse 3.2 

I've followed the steps of the "getting started" of GPD, till 4.2 "integrating Hello Action" because I click 'add action' and get a pop-up in which I can fill in the name and browse to the preferred action class but when I click oke I get the message to look in de log file because of an error:

!ENTRY org.eclipse.jface 4 0 2006-08-22 11:16:15.312

Also tried it with the added MessageActionHandler class which was already in the GPD package but got the same error.

Does anyone have a clue what might be the problem?

thanks in advance!


p.s. I found that with my configuration the JpdlXmlReader.parseProcessDefinition method used in the HelloTest.java in the tutorial does not exist, so I had to change code into:

import org.xml.sax.InputSource;
:
:
  InputSource inputsource = 
     new InputSource("src/java/hello.par/processdefinition.xml");

  JpdlXmlReader reader = new JpdlXmlReader(inputsource);
  ProcessDefinition definition = reader.readProcessDefinition();
