Description misterm 2012-09-13 22:05:48 UTC
Due to excessive memory comsumption or bugs in code,  restarting the IDE is an action needed a few times per day. An explicit action for doing so should be added to the menu. Eclipse has a similar action.

Product Version = NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 20120903-b205afccf642)
Operating System = Windows 7 version 6.1 running on amd64
Java; VM; Vendor = 1.7.0_01
Runtime = Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 21.1-b02

Not planned.

If really desired by some users, there is a plugin available on PP UC which can be installed directly from Tools / Plugins.

Get it here http://plugins.netbeans.org/plugin/42525/restart-ide or use the integrated plugin center to install the "Restart IDE"-plugin (as already told)
