   @Chris2011 I am working on private commercial projects, so I can't share 
them. Besides it would require to share my cache - I don't know if it would 
help, but who knows. So, I can't provide test code to reproduce the bug.
   
   Saying `refactor heavily used code` I mean the following. Consider my 
situation:
   
   ```
   project A
    - jpms module API
    + 2 jpms modules
   
   project B (5 jpms modules and they use API module from project A)
   project C (8 jpms modules and they use API module from project A).
   ```
   
   Now I need to refactor some interfaces in API module of project A. For 
example to split one interface into two. The probability that I will have to 
clear the cache again after such a refactoring is very high.
   
   So, I see the following variants:
   
   1. This issue is closed and forgotten.
   2. Provide any tools in NB that I could use to detect bug. Because IDE log 
doesn't show any errors.
   3. This issue is resolved as NO test code IS REQUIRED to do it. Because this 
issue is about a new feature, for example project -> right click -> rebuild 
cache. The same task is executed when NB starts after installation or on the 
first opening the project. 
   
   I vote for variant 3.  Reasons are the following:
   -  other users also clear their cache
   - NB is a great IDE but it seems that errors in cache are very difficult to 
fix.
