Description skygo 2013-07-17 11:48:18 UTC 
[ BUILD # : 201307162300 ]
[ JDK VERSION : 1.7.0_25 ]

Windows 8x64

== 
 During review of tutorial [1], I tried to apply the netbeans java hints
analyzer 
but nothing happens (visible to user).

By looking at IDE log I found a NPE

 java.lang.NullPointerException at
org.netbeans.modules.java.hints.spiimpl.options.HintsSettings$PreferencesBasedHi
ntsSettings.getHintPreferences(HintsSettings.java:98)
