java.lang.NullPointerException opening resource file

[itb....@gmail.com]

I am trying to create a proof of concept using codenameone. After I added a resource bundle under "Localization", the resource file became completely unusable.

Error messages are:

This was the first resource bundle I added.

Restoring a previous version of the .res file from may backup did not fix the problem. Still unable to open it

IDE: NetBeans
OS:  Windows 7
Simulator N/A
Device Android Nexus 6P

I managed to open the resrouce file after I removed two empty elements from the resource xml file

        <lang name="es">
        </lang>
        <lang name="de">
        </lang>

These entries do cause the editor to trap as described above.

Thanks, we'll fix it for the next update. A temporary workaround is also to disable the XML team mode.
