| FooPlugin.getDefault() returns null from code running inside the Foo plug-in [message #292715] |

I create in Eclipse 3.1 a plug-in called "Foo", and its AbstractUIPlugin class, called FooPlugin,
contains (as always) a method getDefault() to return the singleton instance of FooPlugin.
Somewhere else in the code of the Foo plug-in I call FooPlugin.getDefault() -- for example, to be
able to write to the log -- but the return value is null. Every time.
In most of my plug-ins this has never happened, not once. Why would it be happening in the Foo
plug-in? I.e., where should I look for the difference that is causing this?
thanks,
Paul

Weird. We do have that line, and always have. As far as I can tell, the problem is some environmenmt
thing -- do fresh Eclipse 3.2M2 install, point at a suitable JRE (some of our code does not like
Java 1.5, alas), fresh checkout of all projects, and no problems.
