It seems like the error is at line 45 of my code. My code starting from line 45 is this...
     capture.addActionListener(new java.awt.event.ActionListener() {
            public void actionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {
                    try {
                         java.awt.Point pos = jFrame.getLocationOnScreen();
                         javax.imageio.ImageIO.write(shot.getSubimage(pos.x + 3, pos.y + 27, jFrame.getWidth() - 7, jFrame.getHeight() - 30), "jpg", new java.io.File("image.jpg"));
                    } catch(java.io.IOException ioe) {
                         ioe.printStackTrace();
     popup.add(capture);
     refresh = new javax.swing.JMenuItem("Refresh");
     refresh.setMnemonic('R');
        refresh.addActionListener(new java.awt.event.ActionListener() {
          public void actionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {
                    refresh();
     popup.add(refresh);
     exit = new javax.swing.JMenuItem("Exit");
     exit.setMnemonic('x');
        exit.addActionListener(new java.awt.event.ActionListener() {
            public void actionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {
                    jFrame.setVisible(false);
                    jFrame.dispose();
                    System.exit(0);
     popup.add(exit);
        addMouseListener(new java.awt.event.MouseAdapter() {
            public void mouseReleased(java.awt.event.MouseEvent evt) {
                popup.show(evt.getComponent(), evt.getX(), evt.getY());
        });Is there something wrong with this one?

Hi,
I get the same error and i am not really sure what your explanation says... This problem below is the latest of a series of problems i started getting after i updated my BIRT version in Eclipse 3.3.1 and RAD 6.0... I troubleshooted and resolved most of them however i am not sure and it is not obvious to me what is required for this particular one below
In the problems tab there is nothing to give me a clue. The exception below appears in the Websphere console and also on the page when trying to access my jsp file normally. I am not sure what is causing it, but here it is:
JSP Processing Error

One of the funny things here, is that this is happening only when i start websphere in debug mode!
Does anyone have any idea of what may be causing this or how we can find what's causing it or how to resolve it??
Thanks in advance
& Best Regards
