This Bugzilla instance is a read-only archive of historic NetBeans bug reports. To report a bug in NetBeans please follow the project's instructions for reporting issues.
Steps to reproduce: 1. Make sure that Project | Settings... | Java Sources | Show compile status is set to 'True'. 2. Mount a filesystems with .java files, expand a couple of packages so that the Java nodes are visible, the compile status should be indicated with a pattern displayed next to the node's icon. 3. Switch Project | Settings... | Java Sources | Show compile status to 'False' 4. The compile status indication does not disappear. The option settings applies to newly parsed files only.
Not to newly parsed, but to those files whose icon is constructed fresh - or updated for some reason (errors, ...) However having the nodes notice immediately the setting change can be difficult even now, icons for nodes in the same folder are processed in pseudo-random order and that needs to be solved too.
Changing component to code
Fixed by registry of living JavaNodes - when the suer changes the option, nodes are notified and update their icons.
Merged.
Verified in [release32-38].
Target milestone -> 3.2
Resolved for 3.4.x or earlier, no new info since then -> closing.
