thanks Matthias,

ok lets keep it on :)

I never really had any issues with it either.

the thought was to switch it off in NB 18 and switch it on again in NB 19 once we are able to bump the dependencies - not as permanent new default.

best regards,

michael

Hi,

I don't think this is a good idea. If your disc is to small to hold the
maven index there is a pretty good chance, that your setup is often
broken.

Quite frankly at work I never noticed NetBeans downloading the index,
it is lost in the noice of normal operation.

We will basicly loose all advantages of maven indexing. My local
repository does not hold the latested artifact (rendering the
corresponding hint useless) and completion is interesting because I did
not yet use the artifact. Else I most probably have the right setup for
the setup already at hand.

The option to disable is now there.

Given that part of the discussion around JDK 11 baseline was to make a
faster maven indexer available gives this another bad taste.

So from my POV this should not be done.

Greetings

Matthias

Hello devs,

NB 18 will split the indexer setting into two check boxes, one for local
indexing, one for remote index extraction,

see screenshot: https://github.com/apache/netbeans/pull/5646

I propose to disable remote index extraction by default, until we solved
some more of the issues at least.

main complains are:

   - failing extraction when temp folder is too small e.g #5815 (NB 18
will deactivate indexing on extraction failure)

   - extraction takes too long e.g #5809

Local index scanning scans your .m2 repo, which is fast and might be
sufficient for many use cases and therefore a better default for now.

thoughts?
