Input dialog exception

I have the following code to display a dialog screen for input and then process. This is based on the user guide here.

@Subscribe("calcTaxBtn")
    public void onCalcTaxBtnClick(ClickEvent<Button> event) {
        dialogs.createInputDialog(this)
            .withHeader("Enter Income tax calc parameters")
            .withParameters(
                    InputParameter.entityParameter("company", Company.class).withLabel("Company"),
                    InputParameter.entityParameter("incomeYear", IncomeYear.class).withLabel("Income year"),
                    InputParameter.enumParameter("payrollTaxCalcType", PayrollTaxCalcType.class).withLabel("Payroll Tax Calc Type")
            )
            .withActions(DialogActions.OK_CANCEL)
            .withCloseListener(dialogCloseEvent -> {
                if (dialogCloseEvent.closedWith(DialogOutcome.OK)) {
                    inteaccBdTaxCalcBean.calcIncomeTax(dialogCloseEvent.getValue("company"), dialogCloseEvent.getValue("incomeYear"), dialogCloseEvent.getValue("payrollTaxCalcType"));
                    payrollTaxCalcsDl.load();
                    notifications.create("Process complete..").show();
                }
            })
            .open();
    }

However, getting the following exception. It was working in previous version but not in t 2.0.1 (intelliJ 2023.2).

Hi Mortoza!

Looks like a bug.
Reproduced on 2.0.0 vertion too.

Most likely the error is due to AppSettings add-on. I made an issue: AppSettings add-on breaks input dialog · Issue #2107 · jmix-framework/jmix · GitHub
Will be fixed in release 2.0.2.

Thanks for the report.

Regards,
Dmitriy
