Debug Window

Greetings

Is there something changed with the Smack debug window ?

Using a connection.DEBUG_ENABLED = true; gives a nullpointer exception.

Rajesh,

Is there something changed with the Smack debug

window ?

What version or daily build of Smack are you using? As far as I can remember the debugger hasn’'t changed in the last week or so.

Using a connection.DEBUG_ENABLED = true; gives a

nullpointer exception.

Could you paste a stack trace so I can see what’'s going on?

Thanks,

Dear Gato

I have observed this on the 21st Jan 2004 build.

XMPPConnection connection = new XMPPConnection("jabber.org",5222);
connection.DEBUG_ENABLED = true;

The above code gives

java.lang.NullPointerException

at org.jivesoftware.smack.XMPPConnection.login(XMPPConnection.java:340)

at org.jivesoftware.smack.XMPPConnection.login(XMPPConnection.java:238)

at Fr.sup(Fr.java:19)

at Fr.main(Fr.java:11)

If I change the code to login before enabling debug I do not see the Debug Window and there is no exception thrown.

XMPPConnection connection = new XMPPConnection("jabber.org",5222);
connection.login(user,pass);
connection.DEBUG_ENABLED = true;

FYI: the debug window is shown if debug parameter is passed while running java commandline

Rajesh,

The correct way to open a debug window is to set the DEBUG_ENABLED before you create a new connection.

XMPPConnection.DEBUG_ENABLED = true;
XMPPConnection connection = new XMPPConnection("jabber.org",5222);

Anyway, I’'ll modify the code to avoid the NPE.

Thanks,
