NullPointerException when running snippets

Hi,

I'm trying to setup my development environment for RTC 3 and I'm having an issue when trying to run the plainjava snippets. I've been following the guide here.

I have the RTC 3 client installed to: C:\rtc\jazz - 3.0, with the plainjava libraries installed to C:\rtc\jazz - 3.0\client\plainjava.

I then created a new plugin project as per the guide referenced above, using the plainjava fodler as the location. I then added all of the dependencies in the Automated Management of Dependencies section, saved the project, added the dependencies to the Required Dependencies section, and finally deleted all dependencies from the automated section. At this point the snippets all compile with no errors.

To try and run snippet 1, I created a debug configuration with the Snippets project and snippets.Snippet1 main class selected. In the arguments tab I entered the following VM argument: -Djava.ext.dirs="C:\rtc\jazz - 3.0\client\eclipse\jdk\jre\lib\ext":snippets:.. In the classpath tab I select the User Entries section and then select Add JARS's... and select all JAR's in the snippets folder.

When I run this configuration I get the following output from the eclipse console:

Does anyone have any ideas why I'm seeing this?

I have found that if I remove the JVM argument from the debug configuration the exception is no longer thrown, and the snippet runs ok, however I still see the "SEVERE" entries in the log file...

I'm seeing the same issue. Was anybody able to resolve this problem?
