OS: Mac OSX 1.4
Eclipse: 3.2.2
my struts-config.xml only opens in design mode. I have tried changing the mode back and forth in preference, restarted the app, did a clean. But I just don’t see tabs to switch between design and source modes or a design pallet. It only opens up the file in edit/source mode.

If I right click on file and try to open it with struts config editor it throws the following error/exception:

“Unable to create this part due to an internal error. Reason for the failure: An unexpected exception was thrown”

java.lang.NullPointerException

Here’s what my struts-config.xml looks like:
<?xml version=”1.0″ encoding=”UTF-8″?>
<!DOCTYPE struts-config PUBLIC “-//Apache Software Foundation//DTD Struts Configuration 1.2//EN” “http://struts.apache.org/dtds/struts-config_1_2.dtd”&gt;

<struts-config>
<data-sources />
<form-beans />
<global-exceptions />
<global-forwards />
<action-mappings />
<message-resources parameter=”com.visualbuilder.struts.ApplicationResources” />
</struts-config>
