Message in Popup

[former_member540174]

I have a popup that I am using to enter some data. This data is validated in my button click event. I have a UIElement: MessageArea in my view. In the code I have the following code

 public boolean validateData( )
  {
    //@@begin validateData()
	boolean validReturn = true;
	msgMgr.reportSuccess("hi");
}
 //@@begin others
  static IWDMessageManager msgMgr;
  //@@end

When I run the code I get a java.lang.NullPointerException on the msgMgr.reportSuccess... line of code. If I comment out the msgMgr code then my code functions.

Shouldn't message usage in a popup behave the same as in a "regular" view?

Regards,

Diane

Hi,

Just instantiate your msgMgr in wdDoInit() once.

msgMgr = wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager();
