> Using the BrowserWidget in a wizard rather than the BrowserView can result in a NullPointerException being thrown.
> The BrowseWidget is embedded in a WizardPage so the org.apache.directory.ldapbrowser.ui plugin has not necessarily been activated. However, during a refresh of the BrowserWidget's tree view, a worker-runnable calls on resources of the ldapbrowser.ui plugin and it is activated.
> The activation of the ldapbrowser.ui plugin calls
> {code}
> entryEditorManager = new EntryEditorManager();
> {code}
> The constructor of the EntryEditorManager contains
> {code}
> PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getActiveWorkbenchWindow().getPartService().addPartListener( partListener );
> {code}
> This code only works if called from the UI thread. Otherwise, getActiveWorkbenchWindow() returns null hence the NPE.
> Since a runnable is responsible for the plugin activation in this use-case then this behaviour occurs.
