REW Beta 25 import sweep recording bug

[Antti Huovilainen]

Hi,

I get "Data missing" "The sweep file does not contain data REW requires to generate the measurement, please use a sweep file saved from this REW version" error when trying to use externally recorded sweep measurements.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Export sweep from generator (logarithmic, 32-bit wav).
2. Select "Import sweep recordings"
3. Try to open the previously exported wav as stimulus. The error is shown.
4. If I drag and drop the response recording to the dialog (the Browse button having been disabled), I get java.lang.NullPointerException.

You need to export a measurement sweep.

I just realized that a moment ago. This points out a simple improvement: Change the error message to say that you need to use "measurement sweep". The current error message is confusing as it emphasizes version mismatch. Plus of course the NullPointerException is a bit scary

I have fixed the NPE and altered the message for the next build.

Thank you! I have to say this is exemplary "customer" service!
