in NgClient

plugins.file.readFile() results in the below exception

java.lang.NullPointerException: null

in the Servoy Configuration,
servoy.FileServerService.defaultFolder = C:.servoy\uploads\GUID
I’ve verified that tomcat is running under the SYSTEM account and SYSTEM has full control of the folder

What am I missing?

Thanks,

plugins.file.readFile() without argument is not supported in the NG-client.

Do you want the user to upload a file? Then you should probably use ```
plugins.file.showFileOpenDialog(callbackFunction)

The callbackFunction is called when the user is finished with the dialog and gets an array of JSFiles as argument.
