Product Version = NetBeans IDE 7.0 (Build 201104080000) Operating System = SunOS version 5.11 running on x86 Java; VM; Vendor = 1.6.0_20 Runtime = Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 16.3-b01 Scanning Projects (in PHP projects) gets stuck in netbeans-7.0/php/phpstubs/phpruntime, but eventually also in my own projects. It does not finish for over 40 minutes and still hangs at 78 % - on a quad-core machine. Also, the "Scanning projects" process is not interuptable in the task overview/procesbar in the status bar - why not? This feature is error prone since several version of Netbeans up to NB 7.0 now - please let users at least kill the process if it got stuck. I would suggest to at least add the "tiny cross button" for shutting down a scanning process manually. It is very good that a hanging scan process does not freeze important functions of the IDE any more, but it still needs improvement. Currently it is still very annoying.
Please, reopen this issue and attach several thread dumps [1] taken after the IDE freezes so we can help you. Thanks. [1] http://wiki.netbeans.org/GenerateThreadDump
Created attachment 109437 [details] Profiling Snapshot, taken while the IDE scanned projects This is a profiling snapshot taken when the projects scanning seemed to hang. I hope, that helps.
Created attachment 109438 [details] Thread dump while scanning seemed to hang Full thread dump while the scanning projects progressbar stayed at 4 % for several minutes. Maybe this attachment is also useful for bug# 200070. HTH, R. Rohm
