Description Jaromir Uhrik 2004-11-26 15:12:56 UTC 
[200411231853]
I simply create j2se project. Then delete this
project externaly while IDE has this project still
opened. When I click on the projects' root node
and invoke properties of the project then the
java.lang.NullPointerException appears (see
attached stack).

I have forgotten to mention that the project view holds the project
root node after the project is externaly deleted. In the contrary the
files view is refreshed correctly.
Comment 3 Jan Chalupa 2004-11-27 08:14:05 UTC 
IMO, this is a pathological case and should be closed as wontfix. Try
to run *any* application and then externally delete data files it
depends on. See if the application survives and recovers nicely.
Comment 4 Jaromir Uhrik 2004-11-29 08:43:57 UTC 
I agree this testcase is not common so I have no problem if will be
closed as wontfix.
