I'm not sure what's going on, but I'm having major problem with 6.1. The application regularly hangs when I open files in the editor. Sometimes, I'm able to open two or three files, but inevitably, the main UI hangs solid. Interestingly enough, I can get to, and change, the Prefs for NB. But the main interface is locked solid. This isn't limited to a particular type of file. I've deleted my private netbeans settings and even started projects from scratch, each time ending with the same problem. I'm lucky if I can get two files opened before hanging. This always requires a force-quit in OS X. Nothing of note appears in the log, but clearly no messages are delivered once the app stops responding. Is there anything I can look at that will tell me what is happening when it hangs? Info... OS X 10.5.3 (9D25) MacBook Pro (4GB RAM) java version "1.6.0_05" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_05-b13-120) Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 1.6.0_05-b13-52, mixed mode) java version "1.5.0_13" Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_13-b05-237) Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0_13-119, mixed mode, sharing)
OK, this can be closed. It looks as though the problem is related to the Wicket support module from https://nbwicketsupport.dev.java.net/ . Removing that module has stopped the hanging issue. I'll contact the module authors. Sorry for the errant report.
