This Bugzilla instance is a read-only archive of historic NetBeans bug reports. To report a bug in NetBeans please follow the project's instructions for reporting issues.
When a new NetBeans Platform is added, after selecting the platform, the application takes a considerable time to add the selected platform and to show the entry in the dialog box. The cursor shall be changed to busy cursor while this operation is done, as the system is anyway not usable for that period. Steps: 1) Open the NetBeans Platform Manager by choosing menu Tools > NetBeans Platforms 2) Click on the Add Platform... button, select a NetBeans platform 3) The time taken after choosing valid platform and it getting added in the list of available platforms is considerable. Current State: No busy cursor, dialog box remains open with no visual sign of what is happening. Expected behavior: Busy cursor is shown which indicates that system is doing something in the background and the platform is getting added and will be displayed in some time. Tested in following environment: Product Version: NetBeans IDE 7.1 (Build 201112012200) Java: 1.7.0_01; Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 21.1-b02 System: Windows 7 version 6.1 running on x86; Cp1252; en_US (nb) User directory: C:\Users\tushar_joshi\.netbeans\7.1 Cache directory: C:\Users\tushar_joshi\.netbeans\7.1\var\cache System: OS: Windows 7 Professional, 32-bit System: Intel Core2 Duo CPU T6570 2.10GHz 2.1GHz RAM: 4.00GB RAM
Probably the same as bug #206558, though cannot really tell without a profiler snapshot. Best to use the self-sampler which is integrated with the exception reporter. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 206558 ***
