(Before: had installed NetBeans 6.5, tried to hand-install the Python early-access components. This was simple in Solaris (SXCE) on x86, but more complicated on Windows. Gave up, uninstalled NetBeans. This may be entirely irrelavant.) Re-installed NetBeans 6.5, then NetBeans-Python-early-access. I created a Project directory, containing subdirectories src and test; started NetBeans, tried to move existing project into the new Project directory. NetBeans locked up; java.exe at high utilization. ** Looks like NetBeans started creating directories recursively. ** It never stopped. I finally killed the java.exe. Here is the trail: $ pwd /cygdrive/e/home/aklein/Architecture/Projects/BAM/programs <-- existing directory $ ls -l nbproject <-- existing project total 32 drwxr-xr-x 2 AKlein mkgroup-l-d 0 Nov 26 10:19 private -rw-r--r-- 1 AKlein mkgroup-l-d 361 Nov 26 10:22 project.properties -rw-r--r-- 1 AKlein mkgroup-l-d 525 Nov 26 10:22 project.xml $ ls -l nbproject/private total 0 -rw-r--r-- 1 AKlein mkgroup-l-d 0 Nov 26 10:19 private.properties $ ls -ld Project drwxr-xr-x 5 AKlein mkgroup-l-d 0 Nov 26 11:53 Project <-- new directory $ ls Project <-- contains src, test... and its parent directory? programs src test $ ls Project/src <-- src is empty, OK $ ls Project/test <-- test is empty, OK # Project/programs contains copies of existing files, # AND another copy of the new Project directory # How deep does this go? $ ls Project/programs ClaimTracking_Insert.xml demodata_with_time.py main.py Project failed_insert2.log notes cname generating_data.txt successful_insert_smallest.xml $ ls -l Project/programs/Project/programs ... drwxr-xr-x 4 AKlein mkgroup-l-d 0 Nov 26 11:55 Project $ ls -l Project/programs/Project/programs/Project/programs ... drwxr-xr-x 4 AKlein mkgroup-l-d 0 Nov 26 11:55 Project $ find Project/programs -type d -name Project | wc -l 11 ### the bottom level: ### Project/programs/Project/programs/Project/programs/Project/programs/Project/programs/Project/programs/Project/programs/Project/programs/Project/programs/Project/programs/Project/programs/Project
