When I start Oxygen XML Editor on Windows XP I get the following error. What can I do?
Cannot start Oxygen XML Editor.
Due to:java.lang.NullPointerException

The error is caused by a bug in the Java runtime from Sun Microsystems. You can avoid it by setting the Java system property com.oxygenxml.no.xp.theme to the value true in the startup script, that is adding the startup parameter -Dcom.oxygenxml.no.xp.theme=true. If you start Oxygen XML Editor with the oxygen.bat script just add the parameter-Dcom.oxygenxml.no.xp.theme=true to the java command in the script. If you start Oxygen XML Editor from the Start menu shortcut you have to add the same parameter on a new line in the file [oXygen-install-folder]\oxygen17.0.vmoptions .
