Minor In earlier versions of P4-Plugin you could get away without specifying a stream view when defining a manual workspace for a stream. For example:
Since 1.9.4 was released this will cause a java.lang.NullPointerException error during polling. For example:

If you specify the workspace view or use the 'Streams' option on 'Workspace behavior' it will work OK.
Reproduction steps:
- Install P4-Plugin 1.9.4
- Create a new Freestyle job, choose 'Manual' for 'Workspace behavior' and set it up to poll every minute ('* * * * *').
- Manually run the job.
- Wait 60 seconds.
- Check the software polling log for errors.
