TreePanel stops responding

[ole.spielberg]

Hi all

I have a very odd problem, i have build an application using a TreePanel for navigation, in a border layout. I am deploying this application in the Google App Engine .

This has been working fine for a while, but then i started noticing, that if I just loaded the deployed app from GAE and did nothing for a while, the TreePanel would not respond, this means, no mouse over effects, no actions when i press anything eg. no SelectionChanged which i am listening for fires. In this situation all the other GXT controls on the page still work, it is just the TreePanel which is not responding.

If i start using the app and the TreePanel right away, the TreePanel works just fine.

I have not been able to reproduce this error in hosted mode during development. I am using GWT 2.2 GXT 2.2.3 and GAE 1.4.2

Any suggestions ?

I just found one clue, when this error occurs i get the following statement in the log in chrome :

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'o' of null

Than there will be an NullPointerException somewhere. Try to compile in pretty mode and get the complete stacktrace.

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'nodes' of null, is all it get with pretty formating

Could it be the same problem as this one ?

Probably. Try to compile against GWT 2.0.4.
