Eclipse NPE更新项目

Question

I'm using Eclipse 4.4.1 with the latest gae plugins. When I saved da java file in a project, a NPE was thrown: "Errors occurred during the build. Errors running builder 'Enhancer' on project."

Here's the stack trace:

!STACK 0

Answer 1

What's happening is switching between a non WST or WTP project to a WTP configuration, which means the classic GWT/GAE launchers get clobbered for WTP system.

There is a setting not getting switched off when a configuration switches to the new config.

Workaround fix.

1. Optional: Close all unrelated projects - this helps for drilling.
2. Delete the .settings directory - wipes out the settings
3. Run Maven update - rebuilds the .settings for eclipse

This will soon be fixed.
