NullPointerException on initialisation on Eclipse Neon 4.6

[King07]

The problem occurs on line 418 in the fluorite.model.EventRecorder.java where "Shell shell = Display.getDefault().getActiveShell();" produce a NULL pointer.

Solution: Add the below function to the fluorite.model.EventRecorder.java file and call that function to get the Shell on line 418.

protected Shell getShell() {
    Shell shell = null;

    IWorkbenchWindow activeWorkbenchWindow = PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getActiveWorkbenchWindow();
    if (activeWorkbenchWindow != null) {
        shell = activeWorkbenchWindow.getShell();
    }
    if (shell == null) {
        Display dis = Display.getCurrent();
        if (dis == null) {
            dis = Display.getDefault();
        }
        if (dis != null) {
            shell = dis.getActiveShell();
        }
    }
    if (shell == null) {
        shell = new Shell();
    }
    return shell;
}
