Description

When trying to rename a class a nullpointerexception is thrown.  The class is not renamed locally or in any place that references it, but the file is.  The operation can only be recovered by manually renaming the file  back to its original name.

With the attached project, open svm_node from the libsvm module and try to rename the class to SVMNode using ctrl-r

I saw  some similar bugs but they were poorly reported.
