RDI 9.5.1.1 Restart Software RDI to get it Outline view...

Hi,

Using RDi 9.5.1.1. and no outline was being built. Tried Ctrl+Shift+F5 several times, and no errors. Alt-tab to force a repaint and still no Out-line view.
Yes, my source had the focus, and the bottom status said: "Live parsing xxxxx.rpgle (65%)" Where "xxxxx.rpgle" is my source member.

Finally checked the error-log, and I notice this error Message: Unhandled event loop exception.

Guess what? Restart the client-Software-RDI, and then "Magically" it starts working again. Hence "Restart-to-RDI-to-Get-It-to-Work-Client-Software"

What the heck causes an "Unhandled event loop exception" other than bad code in the software? Somewhere, someone forgot to check for Null-Pointer in the Java-code for RDI.

Here is the error message:
