<h1>
Viewing runtime exceptions
</h1>
<p>
If an expression you evaluate causes a runtime exception, the exception will be reported in the editor. For example:
</p>
<p>
Type and select the expression <code>Object x = null; x.toString()</code> in the editor and click <strong>Display</strong> in the toolbar.
</p>
<p>
The error message:
</p>
<p>
<em>An exception occurred during evaluation: java.lang.NullPointerException</em>
</p>
<p>
will be displayed in the editor.
