java.lang.ClassCastException at org.gjt.sp.jedit.buffer.KillRing.propertiesChanged(KillRing.java:49)

Hello,

I don't think this is an FAQ, I've looked around and can't seem to find anything like this either on the forums or on the jedit.org site...

When starting jEdit, the progress bar on the splash screen stops at about 45% and jEdit never starts up. When I try to run it from the command line, I get the following:

D:\Program Files\jEdit 4.2pre12>java -jar jedit.jar
Exception in thread "main" [error] main: java.lang.ClassCastException
[error] main: at org.gjt.sp.jedit.buffer.KillRing.propertiesChanged(KillRing.java:49)
[error] main: at org.gjt.sp.jedit.jEdit.propertiesChanged(jEdit.java:879)
[error] main: at org.gjt.sp.jedit.jEdit.main(jEdit.java:401)

Is this anything I can fix (a problem in my profile or something like that)? This is on one of the machines at school. At home I never had this problem. It started happening after starting jEdit once (the first time it started up correctly, but I haven't been able to get it to start up since).

Any suggestions welcome.

I first considered plugins, then disabled them. Still same problem. Now Investigating... Sad

Same thing happened to me. I'm running jEdit on MacOSX latest. Ran once, and it ran great, then when I shut down and went to restart jEdit, I got an alert window saying

Cannot launch java application
Uncaught exception in main method: java.lang.ClassCastException

I tried reinstalling Java, and then reinstalling jEdit, still broken.

Anybody got a fix for this?

Same thing just happened to my PC version. For clarification, this is jEdit 4.2pre12.

Am about to try an earlier version and see if it works.

...

Yup, 4.1 final, works no problem...
