Bug 32687 NPE after apply preference changes
Reported: 2003-02-24 11:23:46 | Status: resolved fixed

build rc1, linux-motif, red hat 8, ibm jre 1.3.1 sr2 I had made some changes in my preferences (editor background colour, etc) and hit Apply. Then afterwards I hit OK to close the Preferences dialog and got the following NPE: !ENTRY org.eclipse.ui 4 4 Feb 24, 2003 11:23:07.830 !MESSAGE Unhandled exception caught in event loop.
