Hi John,

Currently there are two types of ESB editors in DevS 3.7.1.
1. Tree structured ESB editor (deprecated)
2. Drag and drop ESB diagram editor (recommended)

Deprecated tree structured ESB editor is outdated and we are not
maintaining it.(We are removing this deprecated editor in next DevS 3.8.0
release). You are getting saving issues/design to source switching issues
with old editor because it's outdated.

So the solution here is to open ESB config files using recommended ESB
editor by just double clicking on the config file. (Double click event will
trigger config file to open in the recommended ESB diagram editor.) Using
other options such as Right click on config file --> "Open With" --> ESB
Editor, use "Ctrl" + "Shift" + R to open config files, will result to open
config files in deprecated ESB editor.

It seems mentioned *java.lang.NullPointerException *exception is not the
root cause for the issues. Please attach the full error
log($workspace/.metadata/.log) to check the actual error.

Thanks,
Viraj.
