Description dalin 2009-12-17 20:56:53 UTC 
I've got a boatload of things in my project folder that I don't want Netbeans to parse/search/do anything with: cache files, libraries that I don't ever use, uploaded files, etc.  I've excluded these files from my project (Project Properties -> Ignored Folders).  However "Find in Projects" does not respect this setting, even though I'm using the "In Open Projects" option.  If the chunk of code that I'm searching for exists in the file cache, it will be returned in the search results.  I'm also guessing that search should complete much faster if it ignored all this stuff.
