java-programmer, hide NullPointerException
I have a GUI which throws a nullpointerexception when things go wrong.
Then it closes. That nullpointerexception is expected and I want it
ignored since before that it has already informed the user that
something has gone wrong and its closing. How can I do this? If I just
put the part of the function throwing the exception within try/catch,
it tends to hang. If I leave it as is, it throws the exception but
closes fine. I just don't want the user to see that exception.

There's obviously a bug in your code. What are you actually doing in
the code that throws the exception?
A code sample just sufficient to show the problem would be helpful.
