             Summary: Generated WizardDescriptor.InstantiatingIterator contains 
suspicious code
                 Key: NETBEANS-914
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-914
             Project: NetBeans
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 9.0
         Environment: Linux
            Reporter: Peter Nabbefeld


The InstantiatingIterator contains following code:

            String[] steps = createSteps();
            for (int i = 0; i < panels.size(); i++) {
                Component c = panels.get(i).getComponent();
                if (steps[i] == null) {
                    // Default step name to component name of panel. Mainly
                    // useful for getting the name of the target chooser to
                    // appear in the list of steps.
                    steps[i] = c.getName();
                }

Here, "steps" is used as a zero-based array.

It uses following method:

private String[] createSteps() {
    String[] beforeSteps = 
(String[])wizard.getProperty("WizardPanel_contentData");
    assert beforeSteps != null : "This wizard may only be used embedded in the 
template wizard";
    String[] res = new String[(beforeSteps.length - 1) + panels.size()];
    for (int i = 0; i < res.length; i++) {
        if (i < (beforeSteps.length - 1)) {
            res[i] = beforeSteps[i];
        } else {
            res[i] = panels.get(i - beforeSteps.length + 
1).getComponent().getName();
        }
    }
    return res;
}

Here, "steps" has a bias-value (the size of beforeSteps - 1), which seems to be 
zero in most cases, but the different usage may cause errors if bias > 0.

Probably it should be made clear, what this bias value exactly is, and then it 
should also be used in the code above, if needed.
