NullPointerException when searchHighlight is turned on

See original GitHub issue

—Workaround—

in Java:

// put at the very beginning
final Screen screen = new Screen()
screen.initScreen(screen)

as a workaround until the fix is released in 2.0.2 (already available in 2.1.0 nightly)

Or in Python:

Debug.highlightOn()

SCREEN.initScreen(SCREEN)

click("1576699165720.png")

respective

Debug.highlightOn()

scr = Screen()
scr.initScreen(scr)

scr.click("1576699165720.png")

System:

  • macOS 10.14
  • intellij bundled java 11
  • sikulixapi version 2.0.1

When using the java API and setting Debug.highlightOn() sikulix crashes on the first click/wait call.

Call stack:

java.lang.NullPointerException
