This Bugzilla instance is a read-only archive of historic NetBeans bug reports. To report a bug in NetBeans please follow the project's instructions for reporting issues.
Steps to reproduce: Open Anagram game project Invoke Profile | Profile Main Project... action. Select Analyze Performance task, set Entire application and Filter: Profile All Classes. Press Run button. Open Live Results window. Go to Method Name Filter (bottom of live results panel) and select Starts with filter type. Write com.toy and press Enter. Live results table should contain only com.toy.* methods. Press Reset Collected Results Buffer button in Live Results toolbar... After that not only profiler data clears but entered filter value and filter type missing too.
Also applies for current sorting in results table, updated summary. This occurs since the first Profiler version and I believe that this issue describes rather an ENHANCEMENT than DEFECT.
Fixed in the new profiler.
