h2. context
* Editing Java code
* Wanted to find all usages of a method
h2. expected / desirable
* Select method name
* Press *ALT / F7*
* See Usages pop-up
* Press *OK*
* Review list of uses found.
* There is ONE as identified using {{grep}}
* I expect Navigation and Refactoring tools to work on ALL files and
Open/Active buffers.
* Netbeans 8 does not force me to save or save and reopen files to rename a
method, or find all usages, etc.
h2. actual
* Pressing *ALT / F7* resulted in the following error:
{panel:title=ALT / F7 error}
!image-2018-04-19-12-58-53-652.png!
{panel}
* The method immediately above this line and the method below are both private
* I can press *ALT / F7* for those methods, no problem.
* In addition navigation isn't working e.g. *CTRL / Left-Mouse-Click* - Jump
to source code fails.
* But only for that One method.
_Furthermore_ ...
* These operations started / resumed working on the {{isNullSelectedNote()}}
method after *Save-*ing the file.
* In a great many cases now Navigation and Refactoring operations have Failed.
* And later worked / Resumed working later
* There is NO CONSISTENT pattern - However most of the time saving the file or
All Files eventually the task seems to work (_again_)
* On the other hand, sometimes navigation, refactoring operations work fine
without forcing me to save a file.
* It is unpredictable - That can be worse than broken sometimes!
*
h2. Impact
* Had to go to a command line and run grep
* That is not helpful for a Public method used across many projects
h2. supporting information
* messages.log
