The fix for bug #196940 introduced a nasty regression, taken from an e-mail by Vladimir: > Below is exceptions report which can not be converted into IZ. > We'd like it to be fixed in 7.0 (because it is expected to be platform for Solaris Studio IDE.Next) > The fix is simple: > check for null after file.listFiles() and exit if null. > as seen from exception it is in DirectoryChooserUI.ListFilesWorker (line 1070) > And occurs in case of read only dir in path. > In NFS env we have such situation rather often when trying to open project from co-worker /home/user/NetBeansProjects folders or other NFS paths Should be fixed in 7.0, Marian, do you agree?
