Couldn't it be that the Java Parser just got a bad day (red notification
bubble in the bottom status bar).
Those cases the IDE loss the connection with the code and can't find
parser assisted stuff.
It should be better with NB17 as we've fixed a few NPE-s along the way.

Hello,
I use NB 16 on Windows 10. On a very large project that has been
running for years, lately, I get the "cannot find or load main class"
error about once a day. Yes, removing the cache fixes it, but so does
something else:
comment out whatever code you just added or changed
run the program (it has always, then, worked at this point (so far
knock on wood - about a dozen instances ))
replace the code you removed
run the program
At which point the same code now finds the main class that it couldn't
before, and runs normally.
I am unable to duplicate this on a small test project - it just never
gets the error in the first place.
Anybody have any suggestions for avoiding this time-wasting error?
Thanks.
