Headless Updating Error [message #568314]

Hello,

I'm trying to add headless updating on my application. I use the code provided by the P2Util class in the project org.eclipse.equinox.p2.examples.rcp.prestartupdate. When I run the exported product, no problem. But when I run the application inside eclipse, a NullPointerException is thrown. I have the same issue why my project or with the org.eclipse.equinox.p2.examples.rcp.prestartupdate project.

Here is a piece of code from the P2Util class :

...
ProvisioningSession session = new ProvisioningSession(agent);

UpdateOperation operation = new UpdateOperation(session);
SubMonitor sub = SubMonitor.convert(monitor, "Checking for application updates...", 200);
IStatus status = operation.resolveModal(sub.newChild(100));
if (status.getCode() == UpdateOperation.STATUS_NOTHING_TO_UPDATE) {
return status;
}
if (status.getSeverity() == IStatus.CANCEL)
throw new OperationCanceledException();

if (status.getSeverity() != IStatus.ERROR) {

ProvisioningJob job = operation.getProvisioningJob(null);
status = job.runModal(sub.newChild(100));
if (status.getSeverity() == IStatus.CANCEL)
throw new OperationCanceledException();
}
...

The error occurs precisely here :
status = job.runModal(sub.newChild(100));

just after :
ProvisioningJob job = operation.getProvisioningJob(null);

P2 detects an update and wants the provisionning job to do it but the operation doesn't return any ProvisioningJob, it's null.

Can you explain me why?

Here is the stack trace :
