#1938 Exception in ProjectViewer

2026-04-04T09:22:53.281000Z

I think it is docked, because in the screenshot, you see that there is a tiny tab "Project Viewer" on the left of the edit area, and no other window is floating around. Also, as I wrote, I had clicked on "Open Project Viewer Dockable", so I guess it means that the viewer should be docked. How else can I check this?

You are right, my mistake. 25.02 is the Java version. jEdit is 5.7.0 .

I found the Activity Log (in Utilities/Troubleshooting), but there is no "clear" button. How do I clear it?

Is the ProjectViewer docked or floating? Regardless,
I can't reproduce. How did you invoke the file browser? A menu action or a keyboard shortcut?

There is a context menu item called "Show in VFS Browser" when you right-click tree nodes in the ProjectViewer that brings me to the right place.

There is no jEdit 25.02. Please clarify the version#.
Also, you might want to clear the activity log, reproduce the issue, and then attach the activity log.

Jedit window with the project open. We can see on the left that the root directory is shown.

This is related to #1397 (same setup, but different error):

I have manually entered the project root for my Project, and have clicked on "Open Project Viewer Dockable".

The title bar of jedit tells me the name of my project.

Clicking on "File Browser" shows me however the root directory of the file system, not my project directory.

The status bar of jedit shows me the following error message

java.lang.NullPointerException: Cannot invoke "projectviewer.ProjectViewer.getTreePanel()" because the return value of "projectviewer.ProjectViewer.getViewer(org.gjt.sp.jedit.View)" is null

ProjectViewer: Button "Choose" has no effect.

Jedit 25.02 on MacOS tahoe using Java 17. ProjectViewer 3.6

I do:

Plugins / ProjectViewer / Project / NewProjectHere

There is an entry field "Root Directory", and next to it a button labelled "Choose".

Since there is no more explanation, I assume that "Choose" is supposed to open a file browser, from where we can choose the project root. However, clicking on "Choose" does not seem to have any effect.

I don't have the setup to release plugins right now but I built it and I can share it on google drive until someone does the official release.
