Logged NPE in ViewerUpdateMonitor constructor #1500

Open mx990 opened 3 months ago

mx990 commented 3 months ago

There is a logged NPE due to viewerInput being null in the constructor of ViewerUpdateMonitor when updating tree elements during Viewer.setInput(null): https://github.com/eclipse-platform/eclipse.platform/blob/b469dee78f959320d018d3607d74fc24da69f7cd/debug/org.eclipse.debug.ui/ui/org/eclipse/debug/internal/ui/viewers/model/ViewerUpdateMonitor.java#L86-L91

The problem originally occurred when watching a variable from the Variables view using right click->Watch, which switches from the Variables view to the Expressions view. However, I was able to reproduce the problem on master with several of the tests in org.eclipse.debug.tests.

Steps to reproduce

I expected: neither logged exception nor hit at breakpoint

But got: logged exceptions and multiple hits at breakpoint

Here is some relevant log output

From <workspace>/.metadata/.log

The logging was added to find the caller that uses null [1]. So instead of removing the logging the caller that passes null should be fixed. @mx990 can you provide a PR?
