In NetBeans 5.5 the Project window would display nodes under a Java class. That went away in NetBeans 6.0 and is not coming back (http://www.netbeans.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=96196). The suggested workaround is to use the Navigator instead. In other words, select a Java source file in the Projects window and then open the Navigator to see the nodes. A problem with that approach is that in 6.0 the Navigator nodes do not have the same context menu entries (as discussed here: http://www.netbeans.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=98134) as the nodes had in the Project window in 5.5. The most useful of those context menu entries have been added to the Navigator nodes in 6.1. There is still one very handy context menu entry missing, though: under the old Tools menu in the Project window of 5.5 there was a sub-menu called Select Profiling Root Methods. Please add Select Profiling Root Methods to the context menu in the Navigator. This will allow the user to select a .java file in the Project window and then without opening the file in an editor, select one or more methods from that .java file in the Navigator and specify that those methods should be root methods when profiling.
Implemented in the new profiler.
