NullPointerException when open a .form

It looks like there is some component with a wrong BeanInfo class.
Handling such cases was made more robust for NB 4.0 - now the error
should be reported giving a hint which component failed. The form
editor does not crash on this any more. I must admit the error message
in the case of wrong BeanInfo could be more helpful. You may file an
enhancement request for this. Thanks.

To fix the problem you probably need to regenerate the BeanInfo class
for the problematic component.
