(Starting a new thread as suggested by Geertjan...) I have seen broken refactoring operations as well. Most notably, "Find Usages" on a Java method will sometimes miss call sites. I have also seen methods and classes missing when searching from the Go to Symbol dialog. Probably the same underlying cause. I don't know how to reproduce this, however.
For comparison, NetBeans 8.4 (pre-Apache, and with Java 8) was always completely reliable. Exiting the IDE, deleting the cache directory, and starting the IDE again have always fixed these problems for me. So I suspect indexing errors are the cause. I used to see a lot of error messages relating to the IDE not being able to parse a java file, although in later releases things have gotten a lot better. I also have high hopes that the new "vanilla indexing" system (Java indexing without the nb-javac plugin) may improve things. All of my projects are Maven-based NetBeans Platform module projects, with Compile-on-Save enabled. -- Eirik -----Original Message----- From: Geertjan Wielenga <geertjan.wiele...@googlemail.com.INVALID> Sent: Monday, August 16, 2021 10:12 AM To: dev <dev@netbeans.apache.org> Subject: Re: VSCode Start a new thread on it and point to the specific issues, or create new ones with steps to reproduce (I use NetBeans regularly including refactoring, would like to see these issues), let's get it fixed.
