Building swing client (org.eclipse.core.runtime.CoreException: BUILD FAILED)

[Michal Zilincar]

Hi All,

getting problems to build swing client using Buckminster create.product.
I have just downloaded latest code from bitbucket.

This is I am getting from console :

[start org.adempiere.base:osgi.bundle$2.1.0.qualifier#eclipse.build]
[end org.adempiere.base:osgi.bundle$2.1.0.qualifier#eclipse.build]
[start org.adempiere.ui:osgi.bundle$2.1.0.qualifier#eclipse.build]
[end org.adempiere.ui:osgi.bundle$2.1.0.qualifier#eclipse.build]
[start org.adempiere.ui.swing:osgi.bundle$2.1.0.qualifier#eclipse.build]
[end org.adempiere.ui.swing:osgi.bundle$2.1.0.qualifier#eclipse.build]
[start org.adempiere.ui.swing:osgi.bundle$2.1.0.qualifier#manifest]
org.eclipse.core.runtime.CoreException: BUILD FAILED
BUILD FAILED: java.lang.NullPointerException


Any idea appreciated.

Thank you
Michal

Solved,

Using the DEBUG Logging, I noticed that right before the build fails buckminster attempts to set an ant property:

 [ant] Setting ro project property: osgi.configuration.area.default -> null org.eclipse.core.runtime.CoreException: BUILD FAILED

The workaround I found to keep my build working was to add the following empty property declarations the configuration/config.ini of my eclipse installation.

osgi.configuration.area.default=
osgi.user.area.default=
osgi.user.area=
