mbien opened a new issue, #8266:
URL: https://github.com/apache/netbeans/issues/8266
### Apache NetBeans version
Apache NetBeans 24
### What happened
simplified snippet from NB codebase:
```java
private void checkProgress(ExecutionEventObject eeo) {
if (ExecutionEvent.Type.ProjectDiscoveryStarted.equals(eeo.type)) {
} else if (ExecutionEvent.Type.SessionStarted.equals(eeo.type)) {
} else if (ExecutionEvent.Type.ProjectStarted.equals(eeo.type)) {
}
}
```
run hint -> convert to switch statement
results:
```code
java.lang.NullPointerException: Cannot invoke
"org.netbeans.spi.java.hints.HintContext.getInfo()" because "this.ctx" is null

```
null seems to be a legal value for `ctx` - judging from the null checks in
other places of the class.
