<Module>.gwt.xml parsing bug?

[Stanislav Bozhkov]

Hi,

I have this Exception/Error:
==============================
[WARN] StandardWrapperValve[shell]: Servlet.service() for servlet shell
threw exception
----------
java.lang.NullPointerException

===========================
This exception comes when I put the closing tag for <servlet> on new
line. Like this:

<servlet path="/search" class="net.atlnatis.client.SearchService">
</servlet>

There's no problem if the closing tag is on the same line.

What do you think is it a bug?

Thanks,
Stanislav

This is a bug. <servlet> cannot have children, so the bug doesn't change the functionality in any real way. But I definitely don't like the NullPointerException, so I entered a bug report for it. Thanks.
