Description bruehlicke 2006-09-06 19:12:12 UTC 
When following the steps on the
http://platform.netbeans.org/tutorials/nbm-paintapp.html  tutorial with 5.5 and
when trying to build the paint app I get

C:\netbeans55\harness\common.xml:202: java.lang.NullPointerException
Comment 1 Jesse Glick 2006-09-06 22:19:51 UTC 
Probably this tutorial should be killed / rewritten, since the example is
available as a sample from the New Project dialog.
Comment 2 Geertjan Wielenga 2006-09-07 12:00:40 UTC 
Don't understand the problem at all -- I just ran the application from 5.5 Beta
2. Nothing wrong with it. CC-ing Tim B.
Comment 3 Martin Krauskopf 2006-09-07 12:37:38 UTC 
The issue is about the tutorial itself
(http://platform.netbeans.org/tutorials/nbm-paintapp.html), not about the sample
(New Project -> Samples .... -> Paint Application)...
Comment 4 Geertjan Wielenga 2006-09-07 12:44:49 UTC 
So what's wrong with the tutorial?
Comment 5 Geertjan Wielenga 2007-05-03 15:43:35 UTC 
Unclear what the problem with the tutorial is. User hasn't responded with details.
