Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.NullPointerException

as the error does not mention any of my classes, how would i go about in finding what is causing this?
if i try: public void notifyChatMessage(String message){...} the error goes away.
but if i try: public void notifyChatMessage(Object message){...} the error is reported.
please advise.
