Description Max Sauer 2005-08-01 12:43:50 UTC

I'm getting an exception while editing source line where a hint is detected: 

java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String index out of range: 14
	at java.lang.String.charAt(String.java:558)
	at
org.netbeans.modules.java.hints.JavaHintsProvider.getErrorOffset(JavaHintsProvider.java:760)
	at
org.netbeans.modules.java.hints.JavaHintsProvider$IncompatibleTypesHintCreator.createHint(JavaHintsProvider.java:250)
	at
org.netbeans.modules.java.hints.JavaHintsProvider.getHints(JavaHintsProvider.java:125)
	at
org.netbeans.modules.editor.hints.HintsOperator$HintPopupTaskImpl.run(HintsOperator.java:221)
	at org.openide.util.Task.run(Task.java:207)
	at org.openide.util.RequestProcessor$Task.run(RequestProcessor.java:469)
[catch] at
org.openide.util.RequestProcessor$Processor.run(RequestProcessor.java:870)
--------------------------

Steps to reproduce:
1) Write a code which requires type typecasting
2) Wait for the hint bulb to appear
3) Delete some chars, starting from the end of the line towards its beginning,
using backspace.

All platforms.

It happens pretty offen, just today I've seen it about 20 times. Exc. pops up
during typing of code, which is very disturbing.
