I did change this setting under Options->Java->Maven->Dependencies. When I clicked on OK to apply these changes, Netbeans showed me a popup window “Performing lengthy operation” and hung. I have killed it after approximately 40 minutes. When I restarted Netbeans options were not saved. I did it again and now it took only 5 minutes to save. Meanwhile it did start “Downloading Javadoc” and that process stalled at 24%. About dozen attempts to cancel it did not succeed. Now my question is: Why these processes are immortal and how do I cancel its execution?

Practically right after opening active projects, Netbeans started a task “Downloading Sources” [cid:[email protected]] This task always sits at 1% completion and never finishes. If I can kill this task (which happens only in ¼ of attempts) it is restarted in few minutes. It makes Netbeans very sluggish. All these jar files already in my .m2 repository. What it is trying to achieve and how can I get rid of this task?
