With our JavaFX projects, the IDE spends a lot of time updating its index. Unfortunately, when it's doing that, it refuses to run the project! So I spend a lot of time looking at the dialog which says "Run Project: Please wait, scanning...". It shouldn't need to finish the index before running the code. I've filed issue 181652 to track this for Java projects - but I want to make sure it's also addressed for JavaFX projects in case you have your own launch code / project support. (There are more details in issue 181652)
Reassigning to editor component. However some more info would be valuable, I see issue 181652 closed as invalid and no hint about any change nor link to the changeset for Java.
Jardo is it indexing issue?
I don't think this is an indexing issue. The main problem is that javafx project system mimics the java project system even though it doesn't use CoS and when running a javafx application an external launcher is invoked, thus waiting for scanning to finish for no reason. I will take a look at it - the code is there from the early days of NB javafx support and mostly copied over from the java support (being a work-in-progress at that time ...)
Probably fixed by http://hg.netbeans.org/javafx/rev/539823d5fd19 Running a project now doesn't wait for scanning to finish. Debugging will still wait as the debugger might need the up-to-date information from parsing&indexing.
Yes!!!! Fixed by 539823d5fd19. It works beautifully! I'm kicking myself for not filing this months ago :) I'm very very happy! Thank you!
