Hi everyone,
My app need to manipulate JLabels that have been added to the pane. All I need to do is simple stuff like make them disappear or change their background color.
Unfortunately (and only from time to time) I get null pointer exceptions:
java.lang.NullP ointerException

As you can see, the stack trace doesn't point to any lines in my code but to the swing libraries instead.
Please help!
Thanks,

First, please don't post in HTML. Second, don't post questions to
comp.lang.java. It's not a "real" newsgroup. Finally, nobody can help you if
you don't show us your code.
it's been my experience that there are two primary causes of this
problem... the first is that your JRE setup might be a bit confused. if
you have more than one, it's possible some x-referencing is going on.
another area however, it to examine just how the JLabel class is
intended to be used. are you doing something with it for which your
stretching the limits of it's specification ? or is there an example
program around that can show you what you are trying to do with it
outside of your application.

When you make the label disappear do you use "dispose()" ?
the JLabel problem he is speaking of, which seems to create a NPE deep
inside JRE libraries was a surprise for me when i came across it the
first time. i managed to trace and backtrace the execution and
double-checked my parameters and everything seemed fine.
however, it's been my experience that when faced with a situation that
just doesn't make sense, it's time to sit back and do some house
cleaning. in my case, i discovered i had not just two but several
versions and implementations of the JRE on my system. not only was this
unnecessary and was taking up space, but after i went thru the trouble
of removing all the JREs and then putting the one i needed back, my code
work perfectly.
such was my experience. and from the sounds of things this is what this
person is facing as well.

A guess: if you are using label.setText(n ull), try label.setText(" ") instead. This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics | |

Hi,
I am getting this weird behavior. I have couple of gif and jpg files
that I would like to display in JLabel. It displays one jpg image but
it does not display other gifs and jpgs. Any idea why it would do so.
Sample code is :
JPanel logoPanel = new JPanel();
logoPanel.setLayout(new BoxLayout(logoPanel, BoxLayout.X_AXIS));
ImageIcon logo = new ImageIcon(_imageFileName);

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
