User Comments:
asenk: 1.Start IDE with clean user dir
2.Create new j2se project JavaApplication
3.In very short time invoke some pop up menus in project tab on: JavaApplication.java, javaaplication, Source Packages, JavaApplication
4.Invoking of pop up menus must be quick with no time gaps

Sometimes this exception is not thrown just once, but is thrown in cca. 5 seconds interval until the IDE is shot down.

And its continue even after IDE is restarted!!!
Comment 4 Jaroslav Tulach 2011-06-22 07:59:35 UTC 
Not a P1: just disable asserts in your config file.

Anyway it is strange, since
http://hg.netbeans.org/releases/rev/f2e72f53aad9
the parameter to FileUtil.toFileObject is normalized. How can it be not normalized!?
Comment 5 Jesse Glick 2011-06-27 19:30:39 UTC 
Right, this stack trace looks impossible.

What's this strange path? "C:\Programme\NetBeans Dev 201009130000\." isn't usual in windows, so where and why is this string created?

IDE currently does not work (it's even been nearly impossible to file a bug report, commenting already did not work, as the exception report popped up again and again :-(

I opened up a project and right clicked on a package and it throws this exception over and over again. I had to collapse the package tree so I could report this. I thought it was a particular project that I had and I closed it and deleted it and opened up a different one and I still get this exception. I don't know what I did to cause it.

I left my computer running for a couple of hours with NetBeans running and came back and clicked on a Project node in the Project Window and this Exception kept throwing over and over again until I canceled the exception reporter.

Here is a video of the bug occurring once and then it happened after NetBeans was restarted on the same project.

I cannot reproduce it now.
Comment 14 MackSix 2011-11-22 02:05:07 UTC 
This happened again, see http://statistics.netbeans.org/analytics/exception.do?id=544765 for steps that caused it. I cannot reproduce it now.

Nice video. As a workaround you can disable assertions.
