Re: Difficulty installing and NullPointerExceptions

Thanks for the report.

I discovered the problem. It looks like you're using the development
version of the tasklist, with NetBeans 3.4.    The development version
only works with NetBeans 4.0 (it uses some APIs in 4.0).  I've just
fixed this by adding a dependency declaration such that the modules
only enable themselves in 4.0 builds.

However, there is a NetBeans 3.4 branch in the tasklist module, which
is kept up to date (e.g. has all the features that the development
build has) - but it uses old-style ant build scripts, the older
versions of the APIs, etc.

To build that, check out the "release34" branch. Hm, I guess I could
provide a prebuilt version. Ok, I'll put one in the downloads area.

P.S. For the hang during the NBM installation, get a stacktrace
(control-break on Windows?) and file a bug against the autoupdate
module.
