Description adlepoo 2010-02-11 09:31:51 UTC

The free form project we have been using since v6.0 ha worked fine until we tried 6.7 and 6.8.

For some reason several classes are not recognized by code completion, even though when opened in 6.5.1 everything is found.

We are stuck on 6.5.1 since this makes the IDE unusable.

Mostly caused by wrong project set up, the NB < 6.7 allowed some illegal settings (sources on classpath, etc) which are against java compiler and is no more supported.
Please take a look at http://wiki.netbeans.org/FaqScanningAndIndexingPerformanceHints section "Configure you freeform projects correctly" or attach the nbproject folder I will take a look.
