There should be check for existance before trying to list files in this folder, if non-existent it should be created. Btw. since net.sourceforge.jnlp.cache.CacheDirectory.getDirStructure(DirectoryNode) is public, it should check the root parameter for null.

Hm. this is strange. If you delete cache  when running itw, then probably fault is moreover correct
behaviour.


How Are you starting cache viewer? When itw-settings are started, all the directories are created.
(double ensured) I'm not a big fan of adding

 File f1 = new File(Defaults.USER_CONFIG_HOME);
f1.mkdirs()
File f2 = new File(Defaults.USER_CACHE_HOME);
f2.mkdirs()

on more places then this already is.

When you are starting itw-settings (or javaws) what is output of console? Or is tehre any more ways
how to run cache viwer?
